Album Review: Kenny Chesney - The Big Revival

Chesney is one of those stadium country rockers more rock than country. There are still a few Nashville rhythms on Drink It Up and Til It’s Gone but mainly it’s an album dosed up on rock hooks. The single, American Kids, at least shows he has a sense of humour and it’s the closest you’ll get to hearing a country star rapping. The theme of the album posits the idea of hippie culture in a modern setting, which is all a little simplistic. If This Bus Could Talk closes the album appropriately, Chesney in reflective mood.
