This review is from: Red River Blue (Audio CD)
"Red River Blue" is Blake Shelton's ninth studio album and clearly his best. The songs on this album define what country music is all about: High quality tunes, amazing singing, great musicianship, solid production, and well written lyrics. "Honey Bee" starts things off and, considering it's already sold over a million downloads, is the perfect song to get the music flowing. He sings some beautiful harmonies about his new wife, Miranda Lambert, and the results are amazing with a pop-country crossover appeal. "God Gave Me You" was written by David Barnes (an indie pop artist based in Nashville) and is a power ballad with an almost rock feel to it. It features a gorgeous melody that few others could pull off. "Get Some" has phenomenal finger picked acoustic guitar and sliding dobro that captures the epitome of that country music feeling. "Good Ole Boys" and "Hey" are both hard-twanging anthem-like country songs that show off Shelton's unique charm and charisma. Martina McBride sings on...Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Another Winner, July 13, 2011

This review is from: Red River Blue (Audio CD)
Blake Shelton puts out another winner with "Red River Blue," and he mixes it up quite well. In addition to what has become Blake's trademark style (powerhouse vocals, great ballads, sly wit), Blake also harkens back to similar sounds from his first couple of albums with songs like "Ready to Roll."

Do yourself a favor and pick up the iTunes Deluxe version for the two bonus tracks ("Chill" and "Addicted" (5 more live tracks if you pre-ordered)).

Standout tracks:
Honey Bee
God Gave Me You
I'm Sorry
Red River Blue
Chill (bonus track from iTunes)
Addicted (bonus track from iTunes)

This review is from: Red River Blue (Audio CD)
This new album by Blake Shelton contains heart felt songs like "I'm Sorry", "God Gave Me You" and the lovely duet with Miranda Lambert entitled "Red River Blue". "Sunny In Seattle" is a song that proves that not all love songs have to be slow to be good. I love the visual images in this song Good Ole Boys is a song in which Blake wonders what happened to all the men who know how to treat a women properly. "Get Some" is a song about the routine activities of life. I love the musical arrangements of this song. I love the piano and guitar playing on this tune. "Hey" is a song living life freely. This song puts me in a good mood. "Honey Bee" is a song that reminds me how fun a country song can be. This is a great summer song. "Red River Blue" is an enjoyable new country album.
