I enjoyed the album. My favorite tracks are “Mississippi or Me”, “My Last Rodeo”, “Damn Good Day to Leave”, “Different ‘Round Here”, and Raised Up Right”. My guess for future singles are “Mississippi or Me”, the Jelly Roll collaboration or “Damn Good Day to Leave”.

#15 country and #79 overall with 12k SPS first week.

This is a really strong album in terms of the music and the lyrics, but Riley's voice just isn't the kind to keep me coming back as much as I otherwise would. A lot of these tracks just lack the great vocal punch that I need for them to reach the next level. That said, it's a consistently solid body of work and I'll take this style of country music over what many of the males of the genre put out...
