Description:

The back cover of this concert video refers to Randy Travis's buttery baritone as "one of country music's most timeless voices." That remains to be seen, but as this live set shows, Travis's voice is a unique instrument, even if his songs have a staid, traditional quality to them. With his lantern jaw, billboard of a forehead, and mouth full of perfect teeth, he looks like a movie cowboy--except that he's dressed in blazer and mock turtleneck, which gives him the appearance of a rancher at a country-club mixer. But when he starts singing, the audience goes wild, as he pulls out hits from the past two decades. The music ranges from up-tempo ("Hard Rock Bottom of Your Heart") to ballad ("Spirit of a Boy, Wisdom of a Man") with little variation. The blend of foursquare lyrics and mainstream country instrumentation (including fiddle and pedal steel guitar) makes for more than 80 minutes of music that will satisfy any longtime Travis fan. --Marshall Fine
