It's one of my favorite albums. I agree, O'Connor takes the lead, but the overall musicianship is spectacular and people like Skaggs, Gill, and Wariner fit in just fine. You're thinking of Now It Belongs To You, right? -- I'm pretty sure that's Steve's other contribution -- most of the songs have no vocals at all. Sam Bush, Jerry Douglas, Bela Fleck, Paul Franklin, Matt Rollings, the list goes on.

I'm not familiar enough with Steve's music to provide a list but my favorite song of his of which I am familiar is Where Did I Go Wrong. I also enjoy A Woman Loves.

I pretty much love all their songs except for "Love Can Build A Bridge".
Overall, are Naomi's vocals underwhelming, or is it just me?

Okay, per Zazie's suggestion, I'm going with Gary Allan.
TOP 1. Smoke Rings in the Dark 2. Songs About Rain (a first cousin to Perfect Stranger's "The Hits"?) 3. Best I Ever Had 4. Her Man 5. Man to Man 6. Man of Me (man, he has a lot of Man songs) 7. A Feelin' Like That 8. No Judgment Day (hidden track on It Would Be You) 9. Forever and a Day 10. Living In a House Full of Love 11. Right Where I Need to Be 12. Tough All Over
BOTTOM 1. Tough Little Boys 2. The One (waaaaaaay overproduced; incredibly, this was also the most reqeuested single for my local station in 2002) 3. Life Ain't Always Beautiful (good hook, but otherwise it seems to be a good cure for insomnia)

Dislikes:
1. The One -- I agree with Hammer on this, but really this is the only song of Gary's I don't like. Good singer.

Okay, going with T-squared now. I haven't done one for him already, have I?
1. It's a Great Day to Be Alive / I'm Gonna Be Somebody (sort of my theme songs for my eventual move to Nashville.

Country Club 13. Here's Your Sign (Get the Picture) (big Engvall fan) 14. This One's Gonna Hurt You... 15. You Never Take Me Dancing (darn you, Zazie)
Standout album cuts 1. If Hell Had a Jukebox 2. Circus Leaving Town (anyone seen Philip Claypool lately?)
Dislikes 1. Bible Belt (quite blasphemous) 2. If I Lost You (boring) 3. I See Me (ditto) 4. Strong Enough to Be Your Man 5. Love of a Woman 6. Best of Intentions

Another artist I will have a hard time "following the rules" and finding enough bad songs for.
Likes:
1. It's a Great Day To Be Alive (one of my favorite songs ever) 2. Foolish Pride 3. Where Corn Don't Grow 4. Sometimes She Forgets (great Steve Earle song) 5. The Whiskey Ain't Workin' 6. Here's a Quarter 7. Between an Old Memory and Me 8. Anymore 9. Tell Me I Was Dreaming 10. Can I Trust You With My Heart 11. Country Club 12. I'm Bonna Be Somebody 13. Put Some Drive in Your Country 14. Best of Intentions 15. Helping Me Get Over You and I'll put the new one at 16 but it may climb
I'll stop there. Agree with Hammer on his album tracks but am too lazy to start looking up great Travis songs on albums.
Dislikes -- looking for 5 --
1. The Girl's Gone Wild -- what an extremely bad lead single 2. Love of a Woman 3. What Say You 4. ran out of songs I don't like -- sbp17, I really did try.
