As the lead singer and co-writer for Hootie & the Blowfish, Darius Rucker always eschewed overt R & B, and fixed the band’s music in roots rock. Now on this solo album, Learn to Live, he immerses himself in the typical Nashville themes of home, hearth, and spirituality, with varying results. His sturdy baritone knows how to carry these messages, and he displays an ease with country phrasing. Furthermore, he's assembled a fine passel of pickers, from mainstream guests Vince Gill, Alison Krauss and Brad Paisley, to 'grassers Aubrey Haynie and Bryan Sutton. All this works fine on the radio—the album and the single "Don't Think I Don't Think About It," which logged the number one slot on the country charts. But while Rucker pays fine homage to Buck Owens with the intro to the humorous divorce declaration "All I Want," and nurtures his inner redneck on the barroom anthem "Drinkin' and Dialin'," too many clichés weave their way into his lyrics, and the overall sound is that of amiable, cookie-cutter, country pop. Next time out, let’s hope Rucker reaches farther back into his South Carolina roots for a more authentic backwoods connection. -– Alanna Nash

Summary: Hootie in the Country 2010-02-08
Comment: Darius Rucker is super interesting. The music is great, but seems merely recycled Hootie and the Blowfish material played with "country" instruments (fiddles and steel guitar). Anyway, as good and inoffensive as the Hootie songs were, and better than most other offerings from the CMA.

Summary: He can sing country too! 2010-02-01
Comment: When I first heard "Don't Think I Don't Think About It" on the radio, I thought to myself, gosh, that sounds like Darius Rucker, but it can't be . . . this is a country station. Sure enough, there is no mistaking his voice. I am a fan of his vocals with Hootie, and I love country music. So perhaps it was only natural that I would love this CD too. All the songs are good--I wouldn't classify anything on here as "filler." My favorites are "Don't Think I Don't Think About It," "History in the Making," "Forever Road," "Alright," and "It Won't Be Like This for Long." I don't think you will be disappointed. I can't wait for his next release!
