Rascal Flatts "Me and My Gang" Country Music CD Review
Rascal Flatts, the current reigning Kings of Country have released their fourth CD entitled Me and My Gang.
Rascal fans will find that the band is indeed maturing and to my ear musically this is their best release to date. Consisting of mostly slower tempo songs, all of which have a moral message to them Rascal Flatts has clearly found their audience on the female side of the ledger.
That said the CD launches with a great track, Stand, and rolls very smoothly right through the full 13 tracks in the collection.
I especially enjoyed their treatment of track 3, Backwards. It's like a musical comedy. Very funny!
Overall I found Me and My Gang a real pleasure to listen to. I like it's smoothness a lot and it certainly does not lack at all in production value. I give it two thumbs up.
The standout tunes on Me and My Gang are Backwards [track 3], Yes I Do [track 7], and Cool Thing [track 11]. My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 2, What Hurts The Most. Very nice!
