TICKET PRICES: $60.00 & $90.00
"Good Time" is a honky-tonk jam that kicks off Alan Jackson's new Arista Nashville album for a tremendously easygoing yet edgy five minutes-plus. It's a Friday night country tune sung by a dog-tired guy who has worked straight through the week yet doesn't want to sleep -- not now; not when "all the conditions are right," as Jackson sings, for something sweeter. The guy has cashed his check, cleaned his truck, picked up his girl across town, and as the sun goes down, he's heading out for some fun -- some beer, some Bocephus, some relief.
Jackson's new collection -- for which he wrote all seventeen songs -- is named 'Good Time,' as well. Loose, inventive, traditional, high-spirited, sad, intense, laid-back, clear as a bell, the album is a great Alan Jackson hang. "I guess I felt like I needed something that wasn't entirely a big, heavy album," says Jackson, whose last release, 2006's profoundly acclaimed Like Red on A Rose was an adventurous exploration of country-soul with producer Alison Krauss.
As a songwriter, Jackson always has been a little tricky to classify. His work is a hybrid of Nashville professionalism and personal expressiveness: His songs offer the hummable polish of the most expert Music Row copyrights at the same time that they expose the personal interiors that listeners associate with the work of self-contained singer-songwriters.
In the end, what you keep coming back to with Alan Jackson and his work is something that artists in any musical field might envy: balance. He is a dedicated, informed country classicist unafraid of the new. He is a first-rate songwriter who doesn't insist on singing only his own songs. He writes "heavy" songs about love and the world but also writes "light" songs that refuse to go light-headed. He wants to do what he wants to do but he also considers how his fans feel about things. He's won every award in the book but doesn't let that be the end of his creative stories. The effortless range of Good Time recalls the work of Hank Williams -- who, as Jackson says, knew a thing or two about balance and keeping things creatively together. "He'd write uptempo 'Jambalaya,' 'Mind Your Own Business.' But then he'd write ballads and do religious songs and gospel things. He did all that stuff, and it all worked."
With Good Time, Jackson says, "Keith and I just wanted to go in there and have fun making a record. We wanted to make a country record with the songs we wanted. My life is very wonderful, and I'm happy, and I think a lot of that reflects on my songwriting now. It's a good place. I don't feel like I need to prove or earn anything. I just want to make good music that I like and that I feel like people who buy my records might like. That's the bottom line, right there."
As country bottom lines go, Jacksonis among the most successful and respected an entertaining and talented performer with a legion of devoted fans.
