Veteran country singer Bobby Bare's return to solo recording after a 20-year hiatus is overseen by his son, Bobby Bare, Jr., who augments strictly traditional arrangements with off-kilter sonic flourishes and appearances from neo-country interpreters like violinist Andrew Bird and singer-songwriter Paul Burch. Bare's world-weary voice eases comfortably into a set of tried-and-true covers that spans classics like Shel Silverstein's "Ballad of Lucy Jordan," "Love Letters in the Sand," and "Am I That Easy to Forget," while Bobby Jr.'s frequently inspired production both highlights the music's familiarity and accentuates its weirdness.

      Bigger than Detroit City
    Review created: 10/09/06
    by:

    Bobby Bare grew up in my hometown in Southeastern Ohio, so I have followed his career for many years. I sang the wonderful Detroit City to my children and grandchildren as long as they would tolerate it, and was surprised to find in this new release that Bobby Bare's talent is bigger than this old favorite of mine.

    While he doesn't have the greatest voice among the country singers, his choice of music and phrasing makes this worth listening to. I like it.
