Another Way To Review
Radney Foster
By Denise Schoppe
October 29, 2002
Since he started out in the 1980s as half of Foster and Lloyd, Radney Foster has played his own flavor of country music. Never quite mainstream, his music has had sporadic chart success while his talent as a singer/songwriter has gotten stronger.
Foster started in Texas music when it was a fairly unknown genre. He then ventured to country, made a short trip into pop and eventually U-turned back into Texas music. Now, with his first album in four years, Foster has indeed found Another Way to Go.
Already the album has given him a number one ("Everyday Angel") on the Texas Music Charts and has gotten heavy airplay on country music radio. The country style of the music can't be denied, but it is not your typical country music album. Foster's trip into pop and his roadhouse roots mingle to form an enjoyable and unique album.
Foster wrote or co-wrote every song, and "Scary Old World" features country singer Chely Wright. With the range of style and topics covered on this album, anyone can find at least one song with which they'll be able to relate. It may not be one you would normally pick up, but this album is not a waste of time or money.
