Reviewed by Carrie Attebury

I have always liked John Anderson's music. From his hits "I'm Just An Old Chunk Of Coal," and "Swingin," to "I Fell In The Water That You Walked On," and "Seminole Wind." His latest album "Nobody's Got It All" is the best album that he has done in a long time.

"It Ain't Easy Being Me" is my absolute favorite song from this album. Being someone who screws up quite frequently I can definitely relate to this tune.

"I Ain't Afraid Of Dying" is my 2nd favorite song on the album. "I Know Where I'm Going When They Lay Me To Rest I Ain't

Afraid Of Dying Lord It's The Living That Scares Me To Death." It's a very good song about some of the problems in our society today.

"Nobody's Got It All" is the medium tempo title cut from the album. "Nobody's Got It All, Nobody's Got It Made, Nobody's Got Everything Though It May Look That Way."

"The Call" is a good song that was cowritten by one of my favorite new country singers Eric Heatherly. As someone who has maintained several very important relationships long distance over the phone and with letters I can definitely relate to this song.

"Big Revival" is a really cool southern country rock style tune.

"Baby's Gone Home To Mama" is an uptempo tune that was co-written by country singer Shawn Camp. It's one of those poor me songs.. you know.. my woman left me... what else can I do but sit here and feel sorry for myself?

I am hoping that "I Love You Again" will be released as a single. It's a very rare John Anderson soft ballad type song.

As I glanced over the list of songs and writers I was surprised to see the name of rock and roll superstar Bruce Springsteen. "Atlantic City" is a very good song.
