Good Time – Alan JacksonView More By Alan Jackson Our ReviewThe cover image of Good Time says a lot about Alan Jackson: relaxed, in control, and effortlessly straddling tradition and trend. Good Time is Jackson’s first album of all original compositions, and at 17 songs and 71 minutes, the album is an affirmation of how comfortable he is with nothing but a pen and a guitar. His belief in small-town Southern values (“Small Town Southern Man,” “Country Boy”) is as unwavering as his love for a honky-tonk tradition that will never die (“When the Love Factor’s High,” “Nothing Left To Do”). And while the album’s detours into nostalgia (“1976,” “I Still Like Bologna”) are enjoyable, “If Jesus Walked the World Today” is far more potent. Effective and unassuming, and backed by a track of taut honky tonk, it’s the kind of statement we’ve come to rely on Jackson for, and his fifteenth album finds him in a place where such songs seem to flow from him with the greatest of ease..

An heir to the new traditionalist movement of the '80s, Jackson's approach was rooted in classic honky tonk yet remained comfortably within the contemporary mainstream. Jackson's hallmark was consistency — he wrote many of his own hits, and his way with a hook was part of the reason he never really hit a commercial dry spell, even into the new millennium. He also projected a modest, wholesome, down-to-earth...
