Comment: Just like the rest of Brian's work, not a bad song on the CD. He is no doubt the master balladeer.

Summary: Top 10 CD of my collection! 2007-05-19
Comment: Brian Burns, what is there to say except WOW! I first heard Brian's music on XM 12 "Cross Country". After immediately being hooked on his sound and style I went and purchased "Heavy Weather" because I enjoyed the song "Nothin' to Say (Austin vs. Nashville)". After playing the CD through I immediately jumped online and bought the rest of his discography. I couldn't be more happy with the decision. Each album is a work of art. My favorite tracks of the album are "Thunderstorms & Tyler Roses" , "Madison" , "Broke Down in Tulsa" , and "Nothin' to Say (Austin vs. Nashville)". Enjoy!

Summary: a happy happy surprise 2005-09-05
Comment: I bought this after hearty recommendations from people on the Tom Russell message board and have played it a LOT since I got it. There are similarities to Tom Russell's work; and there are similarities to Gordon Lightfoot (aside from the Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald) but it's not really all that derivative. The song selection is excellent and execution is very very good. His voice is wonderful and the feeling in the songs is always present. Great guitar, great instrumental accompaniment. (I liked his comment on the liner notes about losing 12 pounds doing the drum accompaniment!) And the bonus track at the end about urban legends is almost worth the price of the album all by itself.

Summary: Fantastic 2005-06-14
Comment: Easily one of the best albums I've ever heard. Brian Burns has a beautiful way of incorporating Texas history into some of his songs (as evidenced by his album "Eagle & the Snake, Songs of the Texians"), and "Indianola" is a wonderful example. Also one of the finest renditions of "Wreck of the Edmond Fitzgerald" I've ever heard.

Summary: Real Country for a change! 2004-08-14
Comment: Glad to see that albums like this are still being cut. "Nothin to Say (Austin vs. Nashville)" says it all (Waylon would be proud)! If you like real country music and think that the only real country radio station left is KHYI you'll like this album. With guys like Brian, Houston Marchman, Wayne Hancock etc. at least REAL Country Music will survive!
