Though Byrd hit his commercial peak a decade ago, he's never recorded a more consistently engaging set of material than this. Among the highlights are the reflective title ballad, the evocation of perfect love on "Just One Woman," and the tale of a couple of weather-beaten romantics who take another chance on true love in "A Cowboy and a Dancer." Yet growing up hasn't meant going soft, as Byrd shows in the uptempo "The More I Feel Like Rockin'," the Western swing of "The Biggest Thing in Texas," and the barroom kiss-off "Better Places Than This." This isn't kids' stuff, but it's country music for adults who still like to let loose once in awhile. --Don McLeese | | | |

Under-recognized Jan 07, 2008
An excellent album (as usual) from this under-recognized C&W singer. He is slightly too Texas-oriented, but this is a common problem among country performers who forget there's more to America than Texas. Otherwise, it's excellent.
The best CD Tracy has recorded Jan 05, 2008
I love every song on this CD. Saltwater Cowboy was the first song I heard off the CD and I knew I had to purchase the CD for that one song. When I listened to the entire CD I was blown away. I have always enjoyed Tracy's music but this one particular CD is awesome. I am not sure what is different about this CD but I hope Tracy keeps up the great work.
real country May 07, 2007
Theres a lot of borderline country these days, especially up here in canada. so its nice to here what i would call country
The Byrd Is Back! Dec 24, 2006
Tracy Byrd is back with his new album, "Different Things."
This is Tracy's first album released from his own label. After a long two year stint between albums, this new album has a few "Different Things" for his "ByrdWatchers."
The tune "The More I Feel Like Rockin'" gets you tappin' your feet and the swing of "Biggest Thing in Texas" reminds me of some of Tracy's older songs on albums from a few years back. The song "Saltwater Cowboy" has some funny lines in the tune, I especially like the opening line of "I look like a lobster wearing flip flops and a Stetson" as this reminds me of Kenny Chesney when he took his photo on the beach.
His answer to "Ten Rounds With Jose Cuervo" is the song "Better Places Than This." In which the person in the song is getting thrown out of the bar...after he's probably had more than "Ten Rounds." He talks about being shown the door, hearing it all and "Hearing it all from his sweet angel's lips."
Although this album is different from his last few, this album is Tracy Byrd through and through. In fact he actually picked these songs to go on the album. This is not the typical album being released today from Nashville. Which is one of the reasons why this album should be part of your collection.
If you're a true Tracy Byrd lover, you need to buy this album.

Super album Dec 24, 2006
This is one of Tracy's better projects. The music is crisp and out of the mainstream "workshop style" country music. Two songs really stood out to me . . . "A Cowboy and a Dancer" and "Different Things." Definitely a good purchase. TBFC
