Editorial Review:

Album Description:
2008 re-release of A Place to Land, the third studio album by Country music group Little Big Town who found a home at Capitol Records Nashville. "We want the world to hear this music," says Schlapman, "It's how we tell the story of our lives." In addition to the project's 12 original tracks, the re-release features four brand new studio tracks, as well as "Life in a Northern Town," a live collaboration with former tourmates Sugarland and Jake Owen. Riding on the success of the album's hit single "Fine Line," A Place to Land demonstrates the group's continuing growth and evolution. Originally released in 2007 as their second album on the independent Equity Music Group label.

If Little Big Town's platinum-selling debut, The Road to Here, found the foursome putting a backwoods spin on both Fleetwood Mac and the Southern California rock scene, the band's sophomore release pays such direct tribute to their heroes that you'd have to have a tin ear not to recognize the very songs that inspired them. Liked Fleetwood Mac's "Go Your Own Way?" They've got it under the bargain title "Fine Line." Loved "The Chain" and "Landslide?" They're here, too, but with different titles. Crosby, Stills & Nash's "Suite: Judy Eyes?" Try "I'm with the Band." And if it's Sheryl Crow or the Eagles you want, consider A Place to Land one-stop shopping. And why not? If the latter artists started out enamored with country, why can't Nashville return the favor? Who could resist those impeccably arranged and polished harmonies wrapped around such trendy topics as emotional abuse and low self-esteem? Homage never sounded so heavenly. --Alanna Nash

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Disappointment landed here...
Bummer. I really enjoyed their debut album so I was pretty excited at the release of A Place To Land but there was nothing here for me to latch onto. I didn't feel connected with any of the songs. Their harmonies still amaze me but the writing on this album didn't quite do it for me this time around. The only track I enjoy is I'm With The Band. If you're new to LBT, go grab their debut album instead... !



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Little Big Town, A place to land
Thus was the 2nd CD I got from them and awesome! 16 songs and they are great!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Better Than The Previous Release
Ever since I saw them open up for Martina McBride in Pittsburgh in '06, I've been a big fan of LBT. I admit I was sceptical when the new cd came out (they had a tough act to follow), but after a few listens, I can't get it out of my cd player. I've never heard a group where it doesn't matter who lead sings, the song sounds great. And their harmonizing is so great, that each song is amazing. I highly recommend this cd to anyone who likes their previous work.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - LBT restores my faith in music!!
Having grown up listening to country but only liking rock and roll, I never expected to be head over heals for Little Big Town. They bring something fresh and new to today's music that is the perfect tapestry of lyrics, harmonies, melodies, and instumentation. I hear my younger days calling with glimpses of early Fleetwood Mac, the Eagles, and even Bad Company on their previous release.

As a Southerner, I have never found a voice or voices for that matter that accurately reflected ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - OK
While some songs are good on this album are good, it does not surpass the road to here. if you have to choose between the two choose the road to here. best songs: 1, 2, 13, 16.
