I like this. It’s a little below my expectations but there’s plenty of good material on here. Certainly a lot more country than his previous 2 records.

Standouts: Down To The Honkytonk (of course), Catch a Cold One, Grass Is Always Greener, Homemade, In It, Made For You, Mexico In Our Minds, Damn

Something To Ride To should’ve made the album over Senorita. Easy

[CoJoFan]

I have to say this is a lot better than American Love. Homemade was probably the standout song to me but a solid album all in all.

[CoJoFan]

Went to look for the physical CD but Big Loud must just be releasing it digitally like they do all their other albums.

Yep digital only. Sucks because I have every one of his albums and can't add this to that.

There’s a physical release. You can order it off his website store.

Homemade is definitely the hit single on this album. Instant for me.

Jake has some quirky stuff on here...not my favorite album of his to be honest.

Not as a standalone album though. Have to buy a bundle to get it.

[phil1996]

I think if the track list was edited down a bit, (with STRT added) it’d be a better album. Something like:

1. Down to the Honkytonk
2. Something To Ride To
3. Catch a Cold One
4. Made For You
5. That’s On Me
6. Grass Is Always Greener
7. Homemade
8. Drink All Day
9. In It
10. River Of Time
11. I Was Jack
12. Damn

[Troublemaker]

I’m not blown away by this album but considering my expectation was low, I’m impressed

[dm2081]

It’s one of his weaker albums IMO, but it’s still solid. “Homemade” needs to be a single at some point, great song. “Catch A Cold One” is another standout too.

[dm2081]

After having more time to digest the album, I think “In It” is the best song actually. Hopefully that can be a single at some point, great song.

[phil1996]

I’ve got Damn, Homemade, and Grass Is Always Greener on repeat. Not to mention Down To The Honkytonk was my most played song in 2018, and well on its way to repeating in 2019.

You can now order his CD alone without a bundle through his store for $10, and shipping rates apply.

Grr I emailed them a few days ago and they said bundle only so I did that. How dumb is this?
