Just Who I Am: Poets & Pirates

I've been knowing Kenny's music only since few months ago...
Here in Italy country music has not much fans, and I knew him before more for his private life than for his own music. I heard a song of his months ago almost by chance and it struck me so far that I wanted to hear more and more about his music.Poets&Pirates his a fantastic amazing record, played in a fantastic way, and Kenny's voice is at his top!!
Every song is perfect in itself and great!even Shiftwork, that at the first struck me less than the others gets and grows more and more funny and crazy at every listening!It's an album very intimate, some songs fit his life perfectly even if Kenny didn't write them (Wife and Kids, Better as a Memory, Demons), music often winks at pop rock more than in his early works, even if it remains country in arrangements and instruments.
Don't Blink, Wife and Kids, Better as a Memory, Dancin' for the Groceries, Demons are the best songs.Good stuff Kenny!

What is it with the overproduction and the electric guitars???? I listened to this overrated artist at a friend's house who happened to have bought this CD. I was curious because my friend said that he liked Kenney Chesney. I think I know why he likes Kenney and it isn't his music.....its the same reason the girls like him. Not because he's a great singer...he isn't....

As far as the music goes on here...forget it. My ears hurt so bad after one listen and its obvious this guy's music only sells because his looks market him....but you know what, folks??? Looks fade away....Kenney will turn 40 soon and his hair will start thinning (if it isn't already) and all that beer he drinks on the beach he likes to sing about will soon develop into a potbelly. Then he can kiss his career goodbye.

I love Kenny, and this is a great cd, I esepcailly love the song "wife and Kids"

Kenny is a great singer as it is but this nw album makes you feel as though you really know him and his life. Has alot of great songs, some about his life and what he hopes for it to become

This is a great cd by chesney like always. You can really relate to the songs on this one. I know many of us understand one of them Shift Work. Great song.
