The voice is straight-forward and powerful. The songs are down-to-earth portraits of real people from the American heartland. The sound is traditional, unapologetic country. Bigger Picture Group introduces Craig Campbell with the 2010 single 'Family Man,' a song that incorporates the centerpiece of his life, the source of his emotional strength and the reason he wakes up in the morning. 'Craig Campbell,' his debut album, blends Campbell's masculine, no-nonsense vocal style with solid, salt-of-the-earth songs about America's working class. It's a timeless sound, one that links him directly to Travis Tritt and Alan Jackson, who likewise built their style on such predecessors as George Jones and Hank Williams Jr. 'It's traditional, back-to-basics, true country music,' Campbell says. 'It's what I am. I can't be anything else.'

VERY GOOD!!!!
Definatly a must buy for this disc!! He has a great sound and every song on here is really good.I hate the new cookie cutter Country too! Craig has a better sound though and sounds of classic country in his mix. I can sense a bit of George Jones and Hank in places and that's what I like!I'm a huge Waylon Jennings fan, Hank, Jamey Johnson (my personal fave) , George Strait George Jones and this guy has a bit of those qualities. Just listening to the snippets made me like what I heard and that's why I bought it last night. I've listened 3 times thru already and I'm loving what I hear.1. I bought It - Awesome song!!!2. Family Man - The one on the radio - awesome song!3. When I Get It - Great song!!4. My Little Cowboy - is my favorite song on here hands down!5. Makes You Wanna Sang - not a huge fan of this song but I don't hit the skip button!6. That Going Away Look [About Her]- LOVE IT! Great song...prob 2nd fave on here7. Fish - LOL....replace the word Fish with the word he is really singing about (another 4 letter F word) and listen to the lyrics carefully...I laugh everytime. Clever stuff!8.Chillaxin' - wasn't big on it at first because I hate that word but it's a catchy tune and it's growing on me.9.That's Music To Me- another great song! This cd is badass!!!10. You probably ain't - Love the lyrics. Reminds me of what I would say to people thinking they know bout the country!11.All Night To Get There - prob my 3rd fave song.All in all - I'm always looking for something new but I keep reverting back to my old country but guys like Gary Allan, Jamey Johnson, Easton Corbin, Trent tomlinson, Jake Owen makes me believe that REAL country is still alive...........you just gotta search for it !!

I'll say it again: Very Underrated Artist
I wrote a review for his sophomore album prior to this one (in case my headline didn't make sense). I love both of his albums & I'm eager to hear the rest of his 3rd album. My favorite song on this album: All Night to Get There. I first heard his music about 3 years ago & he's been a daily listener for me ever since. It'd be nice if the current country "hits" now sounded like this.

Brilliant
Was on a road trip in USA 2 years ago, with some girlfriends and heard this track "Fish" and couldn't stop laughing. It was brilliant. Trouble was we didn't hear who sang it. Back in the States this year, another road trip, and found it on Google!. Great album all the tracks are really good. If you like country, you'll like this!!

A découvrir absolument
Trop méconnu en France mais vraiment excellent. les amateurs de musique country apprécieront.Quel dommage que cette musique soit si confidentielle dans notre pays.Heureusement qu'il y des sites comme celui ci pour acheter ce genre de CD introuvable ailleurs.
