Amazon.co.uk Review
One decade's oddity is the next decade's institution. Or at least that's been the case with Lyle Lovett. The Lone Star eccentric emerged in the 1980s ostensibly as a country artist, but it became clear pretty quickly that a Southern accent and a pair of cowboy boots does not a Nashville favourite make. In time, however, Lovett's free-range brand of swing, blues, gospel, folk, and whatever has been embraced by a coterie of fans who have as little interest in genres as their hero. iLive in Texas/i is something of a valentine to them--as well as an in-concert 13-year career summary for the uninitiated. Rife with live staples ("That's Right", "If I Had a Boat", "She's No Lady", and "North Dakota", which features an appearance by Rickie Lee Jones), the 14-track showcase certifies what loyalists have known for years: Lovett is one of the best bandleaders around. He and his crack crew get big and get small as needed, punching up up-tempo numbers with brass or stripping down to the bare essentials for ballads. Taking it all in, one can't help concluding there's absolutely nothing odd about that. i--Steven Stolder /i

Amazing... December 16, 2000

This is one great album; I'd never heard any of Lyle Lovett's work before a friend loaned me this album, and I have to say I'd dismissed him as The ugly bloke that (somehow) managed to hook Julia Roberts ;-)pDon't be put off. If, like me, you're not a big fan of country, blues or folk-rock, you might think that there's nothing here to like; well, you'd be wrong. This album transcends the musical genres that it contains. I can't recommend it highly enough. What's more - it's well recorded and really does sound like a live gig in your living room.pEnjoy!
