Stevie Ray Vaughans cover of Carters Crossfire earned Carter a BMI Million Air award for more than three million spins. For his tenth release, its appropriate that Carter would return to the very basics of the songs that have built his career, and in so doing, illustrates why he is considered among Texas elite songwriters and artists. The recordings are no frills-edgy, with Carter providing all the vocals and instrumentation. This is a gripping and honest collection filled with his perceptive lyrics told through an artistic blend of folk, rock, blues and Americana.
