Recorded at The Soundshop Studios, Nashville, Tennessee.

After over a decade as a country star, Aaron Tippin was shocked to learn that his vocal cords were shot--he'd been singing incorrectly for years. Tippin, known for his distinctive, nasal delivery, was forced to learn to sing all over again. The impressive results can be heard on his eighth album, PEOPLE LIKE US.

His voice is still unmistakably country, but it's much deeper and more versatile; his emotional delivery on love songs such as "And I Love You" and "Always Us" is a revelation. But don't think Tippin's traded in his working man's Ph.D.--PEOPLE LIKE US also delivers several of his patented blue-collar tunes, including the gritty title track and the goofy "Big Boy Toys." The lead track, "Kiss This," is a fun, raunchy romp about a woman humiliating her ex- in public. Other standouts include the syncopated "Lost," the hard-country "Twenty Nine and Holding," and the beautiful "Every Now and Then (I Wish Then Was Now)." Though the CD goes a little overboard with familial participation--his wife co-wrote two tracks and joins him for a duet, and his toddler son has a cameo--fans will still find plenty to like about PEOPLE LIKE US.
