Travis Tritt - Ten Feet Tall and Bulletproof
Travis Tritt was hitting his stride as an artist when he released 1994's impressive Ten Feet Tall and Bulletproof. From the delightful humor of the title track, which discusses just how silly a man can get under the influence of alcohol, to the deeply heartfelt "Foolish Pride," about how relationships crack up because no one is willing to say "I'm sorry," Travis Tritt cracks open the shell of what country music is and he bares heart and soul in every word he sings.
You can hear shreds of a broken heart when Travis sings "Tell Me I Was Dreaming" (the middle
chapter in the "Mac Singleton" video saga); his blues roots shine in "No Vacation From The Blues" (written with Lynard Skynard's Gary Rossington). Travis displays his southern-rock leanings with the powerful "Southern Justice," and he celebrates his outlaw country roots with "Outlaws Like Us."
Travis Tritt is a country singer who has never forgotten what a country song is supposed to do make you FEEL something, down deep inside. He is unfailingly crisp and concise in his vocal delivery, always drenched with his fierce Georgia accent. Travis has always produced excellence, but in many ways he never did so with as much panache and as much class as with Ten Feet Tall And Bulletproof.
