Once upon a time, I bought this album on cassette, since the CD wasn't available, and enjoyed it muchly on long drives since I had personal experience with the subject matter, having experience the joys of freedom when I was expelled from domestic shores. And this is good drown your sorrows... music for the serial monogomist. I particularly enjoy "Here's a Quarter (Call Someone Who Cares)." And Randy Travis is superb with "Have a nice rest of your life," and "Too Gone Too Long." And all fans of Austin City Limits will enjoy Eddie Rabbitt's "Drinin' My Baby (Off My Mind)." So, if you can't visit south 6th street in Bushville, get this CD, and mourn your former ball and chain....
