Thanks, Steve!

Any chance your sources list who played on which songs?

I really like the album. There are 24 songs, a few of which venture outside the realm of country but Ronnie put his own spin on them and they sound great. You can pretty much tell which cuts have Paul on steel and which have Gary. Both great players with distinctive styles and I'm glad Gary played part of the album since he has a long history with Brooks & Dunn. I haven't settled on a favorite cut yet but 'Ridin' My Thumb to Mexico' is high on my list. They're all great...a very listenable project.

Please don't overlook Brent Mason on this record, according to R Dunn he requested to Brent to turn up the wick, and he did. Great CD all around

My guess, hunch, is that Brent was once again the music arranger as he is so many times on the projects he works on. An amazing talent , maybe the word is brilliant. Brent knows how to stick that square peg into a round hole !

Quite true, Brent Mason just blisters. I don't have the album credits since I got it from iTunes but I wish I did.
