Everyone's been raving about William Michael Morgan's debut album (and rightfully so), but this one deserves just as much praise if not slightly more. Fantastic album on my first listen.

[McCreerian (Harris 2024!)]

Damn this is REAL Country music! Love it!!

"Come Do A Little Life" should have been the proper lead single for this, would have had the best chance. But damn, "It's Just A Dog" hits really hard, what a great song.

[George Strait Junkie]

1. Come Do A Little Life - im shocked too i just love this song has to be my favorite

Single #4 - Come Do A Little Life
Single #5 - It's Just A Dog

if we get 5 singles deep that is witch i doubt but hey i can dream

What we have done to have God bless us with full-length releases from Jon Pardi, William Michael Morgan, and Mo Pitney in five months is beyond me. Nevermind the fact that there are still folks in Nashville who want to make this music, play it, produce it and see the vision beyond promoting it is promising.

There shouldn't be a competition between Pardi, WMM, and Pitney over who has given us the best album--but I'm glad some of us are looking at it that way.

I envision all artists like this (and folks like Maddie & Tae) who feel pride in that throwback sound to continue to feed off each other and push themselves to chug along with what they believe in.

"It's Just a Dog" brought me to real tears.

[McCreerian (Harris 2024!)]

"It's Just A Dog" is the mega hit in waiting and it deserves award nominations. I mean it's a song nearly everyone has experienced. That's what Country music is and should be.

[zjames]

I think the only real chance at a hit single is "It's Just a Dog". It would need a viral music video and maybe some exposure on Bobby Bones' show or The Highway or something. Once casual radio listeners heard that song, I don't think it could be ignored.

This album is fantastic. It's a shame it's probably not going to sell hardly anything and the rollout for the release of this couldn't be stranger, but I am still so glad that Curb actually allowed it to see the light of day. I really wish they had tried pushing another single from this to radio though, even if it probably wouldn't have done much. I thought "Everywhere" was supposed to be released at some point, but I'm guessing that plan never materialized? "Come Do a Little Life" sounds like a hit to me though, and I could see "It's Just a Dog" doing decently well if it the perfect storm of things go right for it (which is unfortunately unlikely to happen). But honestly I'm just glad this album is finally out there!

"Boy & A Girl Thing" is quickly becoming a favorite of mine. "It's Just a Dog" is exceptionally written.

[George Strait Junkie]

Finally found out who that chick is doing back up on "Boy & a Girl Thing" it's been driving me nuts not knowing cause she's so good it's Chris Stapleton's wife Morgane man she needs a record deal fast so damn good

[Andy]

Am I insane, or does anyone else think "I Met Merle Haggard Today" is meant to be kind of a homage to "Makeup and Faded Blue Jeans?" Maybe it's just me, but they strike me as very similar melodically and instrumentally.
