Guide Review - Mud on the Tires - Brad Paisley

If Brad Paisley had wanted to, he probably could have called this album Part III, as the types of songs are much like those found on his first two albums.

Once more, Brad puts out an album of traditional country music showcasing his fantastic guitar playing, great songwriting (he wrote or co-wrote 10 of the 16 songs on the album), and mellow singing voice.

Another thing that can be said about Mud on the Tires is variety. While some artists have maybe 3-4 hits and mostly filler, or cuts that just won't make it on radio, Brad has a strong album full of songs that could nearly all be radio hits. I think one of the things I like best about Brad's songs is that so many people can relate to his song subjects. Then, there are the humorous songs. Brad's sense of humor really adds to his music.

As on his previous two albums, Brad adds a gospel song to his album. On this album he adds "Farther Along." Brad dedicates the song to his manager's wife, Carolyn, who lost her battle with cancer in 2002.

If you enjoyed Brad's previous two albums, this one will be another favorite.
