"Permanently"
On his self-titled 1996 debut album,
Mark Wills showed himself to be a talented utility player on
the modern country field, as familiar with edgy Southern country-rock
as mainstream radio fare. However, none of the raggedy stuff
passed muster like the smoother, sentimental sounds of Wish You
Were Here,Wills second outing, and with three No. 1 hits--"I
Do," "Wish You Were Here," "Don't Laugh at
Me"--the die was cast.Mark Wills's third release finds the
Georgian pigeonholed as the ultimate heart-on-his-sleeve romantic,
changed by love and fatherhood, and fretting about the world's
forgotten children. All that is well and good, and Mark , with
his earnest, aching tenor, knows how to sell a song |
