Nashville Gab reviews great big world
..."I honestly didn't have a clue what to expect when I was asked to review this album, Great Big World.

Well folks, I was very pleasantly surprised.  It's always awesome to get an album that I actually like the whole thing, and I really loved Monty's whole album.  Before I get into why liked the album, let me tell you a little about Monty, just in case you're in the dark like I was"....

GREAT BIG WORLD reviewed on the popular country music blog, ry Standard Time
Mike Sudhalter writes: Allen must have read my mind because he put a country spin on a pop song - Steve Winwood's "Back In The Highlife." After hearing the song - with a touch of twang - you almost wonder why it wasn't a country song first.
Allen also does a touching song, "Soldier Coming Home", as in that's all he wants for Christmas. It's definitely a patriotic tune that shows Allen's deep appreciation for the troops.

Sept 11, 2008: Rodeo Attitude News Picks Monty Lane Allen's "Back in The High Life" as Single of Week!

Unquestioned single of the week is "
Back In The High Life Again" by Monty Lane Allen.

This is his "Country" take of Stevie Winwood's 1995 hit, and it's a wonderful remake.

The lyrics actually mean something, the tune is as fresh today as it was on it's first release and I don't suppose it stands a cat in hell's chance on Country radio.

BUY this one: it'll make your day brighter, no matter how you feel right now!
