Dream Walkin' (CD)

Toby Keith has all the right credentials for a country star; born in Oklahoma, he was raised on a farm, and worked for a rodeo as a young man. In 1993, Keith became a success straight out of the gate with his self-titled debut album. From there on, the hits never stopped coming. In the wake of 9/11, Keith's profile was raised even further for his controversial, jingoistic 2002 anthem "Courtesy of the Red, White & Blue (The Angry American)" and his public feud with the left-leaning Dixie Chicks.

Toby Keith has the kind of deep, assured but ever-so-slightly vulnerable country voice that sells records, platinum-style. This guy used to work in the oil fields of Oklahoma, as well as play a little semi-pro football,and that may explain the slightly rough edges that get wrapped around his tunes. Keith's music has a real from-the-gut quality. And just about every one of those tunes emerges as a strong, carefully-crafted country song. The title track is a catchy little honky-tonker of a tune, about a guy who wakes up to a lipstick-penned note reading "I had a good time." Potent, real-life images like that elevate this record from the "just-another-hat-act" category, and into the realm of must-haves for any country fan.
