Music reviews of Pontiac
Music Review: Tour de Force
Rating: 5 Stars
This album reveals fully the versatility of Lyle Lovett, more than a mere country singer. The range of emotion, lyric and musicality is broad, from the softly sorrowful "I Loved You Yesterday" (one of my favorites) and the lovely "Simple Song," (absolutely beautiful -- another favorite) to the offbeat and jazzy "She's No Lady" and the feisty "She's Hot to Go." (Although the latter 2 can be seen as evidence of what some feel is Lyle Lovett's misogynic tendencies, I think they just reveal the somewhat jaded and saddened view of a man who may have had some bad luck with women!) The title piece, "Pontiac" is also moving and lyrical. What a talented songwriter he is.

Pontiac is Lyle Lovett's finest album, but it still contains the strengths and weaknesses that have become Lyle's hallmarks. Crack playing, keen observations and clever lyrics, and a neo-traditionalist aesthetic that pulls in everything from Texas folk, honky-tonk and Western swing to old-school pop all shine brightly here, but they're consistently dulled by an ironic distance and a bitterness toward women that approaches misogyny. On Pontiac, the strengths generally win out, however, as Lovett convincingly stalks an old lover ("L.A. County"), says "take my wife, please" ("She's No Lady"), and, on the title track, offers a character sketch that could've been penned by Raymond Carver. --David Cantwell
