Music reviews of A Place to Land
Music Review: Consistently excellent
Rating: 5 Stars
Little Big Town is phenomenal. Their material and performances are consistently excellent. Performers have to be pigeonholed in some category, and country is where LBT gets slotted, but we're not talking cowboy hats and pickup trucks here. This is just good old rock 'n roll, with only the faintest of twangs. And it just doesn't get much better than this.
Any one of the four members could be a big star on his or her own, but they have chosen instead to pack all of that talent into a tight harmony band, taking turns singing lead. That approach may make them less successful on the radio than a band that has one consistently recognizable voice out front, but it results in a mix of songs that you don't get tired of listening to.
I've gone to three of their concerts. At two, they were the opening act for a bigger name (Martina McBride, George Strait). In both cases, I went for LBT, not the headliner. In fact, I didn't even stay for George Strait's set. The third concert was all their own, so they had the space to really show what they're made of. That was one of the best concerts I've ever been to (up there with Springsteen and Garth).
I can't think of anybody else on the scene with such a high batting average of really good songs -- about four out of five, to my taste. Their earlier CD, "The Road to Here," had set the bar exceptionally high, so I was prepared for a letdown with "A Place to Land." But damned if it isn't even better. I can't wait to hear what they do next.
Description of A Place to Land
2008 re-release of A Place to Land, the third studio album by Country music group Little Big Town who found a home at Capitol Records Nashville. "We want the world to hear this music," says Schlapman, "It's how we tell the story of our lives." In addition to the project's 12 original tracks, the re-release features four brand new studio tracks, as well as "Life in a Northern Town," a live collaboration with former tourmates Sugarland and Jake Owen. Riding on the success of the album's hit single "Fine Line," A Place to Land demonstrates the group's continuing growth and evolution. Originally released in 2007 as their second album on the independent Equity Music Group label.If Little Big Town's platinum-selling debut, The Road to Here, found the foursome putting a backwoods spin on both Fleetwood Mac and the Southern California rock scene, the band's sophomore release pays such direct tribute to their heroes that you'd have to have a tin ear not to recognize the very songs that inspired them. Liked Fleetwood Mac's "Go Your Own Way?" They've got it under the bargain title "Fine Line." Loved "The Chain" and "Landslide?" They're here, too, but with different titles. Crosby, Stills & Nash's "Suite: Judy Eyes?" Try "I'm with the Band." And if it's Sheryl Crow or the Eagles you want, consider A Place to Land one-stop shopping. And why not? If the latter artists started out enamored with country, why can't Nashville return the favor? Who could resist those impeccably arranged and polished harmonies wrapped around such trendy topics as emotional abuse and low self-esteem? Homage never sounded so heavenly. --Alanna Nash
