Mandolin Wall

Walls Came Down is the latest release from Country Artist Collin Raye, and is another great one from this talented musician.

Unfortunately, it's not everyday that I get a CD from an artist that I can just pop in and comfortably listen to from beginning to end. There is usually a song or two that I just can't force myself to get through. Not at all the case with Walls Came Down. Every track is enjoyable and was pretty easy for me to listen to from start to finish.

Walls Came Down has a pleasantly varied, mix of 13 tracks that are very well written songs by this clearly gifted artist. Most of the songs display a lot of the kind emotion that makes for a really great listen. Clearly drawing from what I can only imagine are him own real life experiences. At different points touching on the most real emotions like love, and the pain of failed relationships can certainly be heard.

Walls Came Down is a first rate CD, delivering a little something for everyone. I give it two thumbs up. It's quite simply great listening. A must buy if you're even mildly into Country music.

While this entire album is really very good some of my favorites are track 2 - I Wish I Could, track 5 - Someone You Used To Know, and track 13 - The Eleventh Commandment

My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 - Anyone Else. Outstanding!
