I'd never heard anything about Billy Bob Thornton, the actor, also being a singer/songwriter until we listened to an interview on NPR. They classify as "pop" but he tells some great stories and some have a kind of old-time western sound to them and he sings about some social issues esp. in "Pretty People" and, his own Obsessive Compulsive Disorder in "Always Countin'." There's also some very nice guitar parts and some great harmony. "I Can Tell You" even sounds a bit like the Beatles. Billy Bob's voice reminds me a little of Dave Carter and a few others. He's got a nice deep richness in it. All in all, I would be glad to recommend this album.
