 Yet another strong effort from one of country's best Aug 15, 2006
By DanD
A Trace Adkins CD can't be any less than enjoyable; after all, the man has one of the most distinctive baritones ever to grace country music. He has a knack for taking a song and living it; for conveying the appropriate emotions, be it sorrow, regret, love, contentment, or something a bit raunchier.
Lately, Adkins has departed from his old traditional stance, and made music that--though still country--has a decidedly more rock edge. DANGEROUS MAN is a perfect example of southern rock and country music blending together into one simple sound. Electric guitars screaming over lyrics about southern women; a father's love for his sick son conveyed amidst subtle melodies; it's all contemporary country rock at its best. The only slacker here is the remix of "Honky Tonk Badonkadonk;" the song is certainly catchy, but this pop/funk remix feels out of place...maybe in a bar or music video (where it was originally featured), but not on an album of country rock music. Besides, haven't we heard the tune enough? Big hit though it was, it falls far short of Adkins's normal standards.
Still, DANGEROUS MAN is a great Trace Adkins album. A lil' country, a lil' rock 'n roll...just great music. Heart, attitude, compassion, the hat...Adkins is a man's man, but he can still melt a woman's heart, and that's probably all that matters. He is a true country crooner for the modern age. Often overlooked, he is and will always be a fan favorite--simply because he knows what his fans want, and that is good country music with an edge.

 Trace is MY Dangerous Man Nov 05, 2006
By TLW
Trace Adkins has set them up and knocked them down once more! Can Trace ever produce any music that sounds bad? His low deep bass voice continues to tickle our ears and the message of the songs he chooses to put together on cd continue to proclaim loud and strong that he loves everything in life from his dog to his woman to his God!
I strongly recommend that everyone has Trace's latest CD in their collection! A big ten-four in my CD player!

Hello CMT Awards..it's time for Trace Nov 18, 2006
By Angel M. Brant
"angelbby1"
Album after Album, from heartfelt ballads like "Words Get In The Way" to edgey sexual tension filled songs like "Aint' No Woman Like You"..this album has it all.
I got to see Trace last night in concert here in Phoenix and the man sings his music with as more conviction than showmanship. Unlike upcoming stars and so-called country ryalty who we paid double the ticket price for only to be disappointed...sorely!
His honky-tonk roots came through and it is just as much apparent live as on this album. The comments around me were that this artist is for the working man because that is where Trace's roots are..a hard workin' man with a real story to tell.
He is consistant, and I am shocked that CMT does not take more of a look at Trace than they do. He is not another Tim MCGraw, Kenny Chesney or George Straight. This album is evidence that he loves what he does and that is what many love him for.
This CD is a definite asset to your collection. GO OUT & BUY IT!! You might also find his other music and love it just as much!! Especially if you are as tired of kenny, TIm and George as I am!
Happy Listeneing!

Dangerous is GOOD Aug 31, 2006
By Lydia Plunk
"Dangerous Man" will position Trace Adkins as one of contemporary music's most influential musicians. This is not an error of omission that " country" is left out of the description, for Mr. Adkins's music style is iconoclastic of our era. From the moment when seemingly out of nowhere the first note of the title song is solidly hit: Southern Rock and R&B are solidly fused. There is no lack of clarity or ambiguity in any of the work. This collection is performed with energy, intent and integrity.
Trace Adkins earns musical respect in this endeavor. There is nothing cookie- cutter in this work, other than the possible exception of the closing video mix of Honky-Tonk Bodonkadonk, which looses something in the translation to pop. Too often missing from contemporary music: there are actual crescendos and changes of tempo. There are changes of mood appropriate to the individual songs recorded. Scales are climbed like a Stair Master, slid down with the ease of a child at a park and jumped around with equal pleasure. Mr. Adkin's is known for his bottom scraping low notes: but it used to be easy to forget his vocal range competes with Josh Turner's. The major difference is that Josh Turner is more old school smooth, while Mr. Adkins delivers lines with more edge and bravado.
One of the most satisfying aspects of Mr. Adkins's music is his ability to convey masculine emotion that is neither condescending nor disrespectful of women. Like Sally Field might say, "He likes us! He really likes us." As importantly, it is absolutely clear that there is nothing more powerful than a specific man bonding to a specific woman.
In "Dangerous Man", the artist projects the image of a masculine man being so in love with a specific woman that she has power over him that is totally out of his control. The tension of desire and power shifted from one lover to the other is palpably seductive. Our culture has been pretty open about women liking their men just a little dangerous: and this song explains it from the other side. Men like the romance of being swept by "chemistry" just as much as we do.
" Ladies Love Country Boys" is a very up-tempo. It is a happy-ending and loving look at a suburban family sending their properly raised daughter to continue the ride of upward mobility. But the biggest lesson may be for her parents when she brings home the truth she learned while she was away. Happiness doesn't come from status.
"Swing" is a drinking-song metaphor of guys picking up girls in a bar being like going in to the batter's box. You are usually going to strike out: but you have to go up to the plate to be in the game.
"Ain't No Woman Like You" is straight Memphis Blues, complete with horns. In it the man is declaring the depth of his love. He may not have been around the world, but he's been around the block, and he doesn't have to look any farther.
"I Wanna Feel Something" is the defining song that explains why so many of my generation have found a musical home in the genre of Country Music. I'm 50ish and did not grow up liking Country Music. If my husband had turned it on early in our marriage, it would have been "grounds" and I don't mean as in coffee. But a long the way we become jaded to the relative easiness of modern suburban life and we yearn to feel something. We want to feel the wonder of youth when we breathe in the wonder of every day life and of each other. We don't always like what we find ourselves becoming as we get older and we want to heal. Country Music, helps us return to our better selves.
And with that I will close with the last word sung on "Southern Hallelujah" - Amen
