Deluxe CD/DVD edition includes bonus DVD. Bullets in the Gun, Keith's 15th studio album, is a defining career milestone. But then, so have been each of his previous releases. And that's the real point. Any attempt to explain, qualify or quantify Toby Keith that doesn't start and end with the full breadth of his music is radically misdirected. For it is in his music - the art and craft of it and, just as significantly, the unwavering embrace of the audience - that we can best define a songwriter/performer now in his 18th consecutive year at the top of the charts. Appropriately, Bullets helps bring everything that has come before into clearer relief. Rarely credited for the adventurousness and diversity of his catalog, Keith has created his most astoundingly varied collection of songs and sounds yet.
Produced by the artist himself, Toby Keith's fifteenth album Bullets in the Gun presents a collection of ten originals that emphasize his diversity as a songwriter. The Deluxe Edition underlines the breadth of Keith's influence by offering live cover versions of Gordon Lightfoot's "Sundown," Johnny Paycheck's "11 Months and 29 Days," and "I've Been A Long Time Leaving (But I'll Be A Long Time Gone)" and "Chug-A-Lug," both written by Roger Miller. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Rovi
