Album Review - Dierks Bentley - Long Trip Alone

Dierks Bentley's self-titled debut may have earned him a heap of 
attention, but it was his sophomore effort Modern Day Drifter that 
landed in the Top 10 and spawned a trio of #1 hits, thus turning him 
into a rapidly rising star. His latest effort Long Trip Alone, then, is 
designed specifically to keep him in the spotlight, and not 
surprisingly, it virtually mirrors the successes and failures of its 
predecessors. Front-loaded with ridiculously safe and wholly uninspired 
material that is geared toward riding the airwaves of mainstream country 
radio, the 11-track set takes quite a while to find its focus.
