This is classic David Mallett, one of the very best singer/songwriters in the folk music genre. He's been performing for over four decades, and he's as good today as he ever was. He's an experienced songwriter, a master at his style of guitar playing, and he never misses a note on the harmonica. If you get a chance to see him perform in concert, don't miss it.

Here I set trying to get ready for 'paid by tips', farmers market gig and I am still trying to learn the words of "greening up real good". I never have met him, but I believe I met some of his close friends while busking on Church Street. I bought his ambition album and it knocked me into a different,good place for whom I was. That album absolutely nails precisely what is going on in America today. The article I just finished reading about him put some in the class of Lightfoot and Johnny Cash and Guy Clark[whom interestingly is very similar to David as far as not really making into the Garth Brooks kind of stardom that took over Nashville. I have had the opportunity to see him as I now live in Maine but due to financial setbacks of mine have not been able to afford even the cheap seats[and there are no cheapseats for anyone now]😢. Money be damned. I am definitely going to get a ticket to his next show. I'll bet you dollars to doughnuts he is playing to full houses these days. Thank you David. In my opinion you are right up there with the best. I heard Merle Haggard say one time that a good day is when he could write a good song. I have to get back to writing my setlist for my first gig in years.(Let me see now,...Inch by inch or There's an old horse in a pasture or maybe that one about street people "hunkerin' down". Maybe I'll start with some doc Watson: Life gets tedious don't it[which I heard and announcer on WUMB ,introduce as "Life gets to jesus!" back in mid to late 80's.. I am definitely doing J Denver.River-Bill Staines,some Eagles,Beatles[ya gutta!]Oh,and let Bob D not be forgotten:Forever Young and Neil,..so many songs;so little time left to perform. Yep.David keeps good company,imo.

This whole album is fantastic! I wish there was a video for She's Got a Rockin' Roll Heart and I Fall in Love for a Lifetime. Thanks for this one, though. Really good sound quality.

Such a great album, his shot at the "big time", after his old school folkie stuff. Unfortunately, he hit Nashville right around the time that the hot-to-trot "pretty boy-in-a-hat" Garth Brooks clones were taking over.

The window that opened in the late '80s was about to close in 1992. Garth actually wasn't to blame; he opened doors in Nashville for a lot of different influences and some really good music. It all started going downhill and dumbed-down a couple of years later when Billy Ray Cyrus had his monster "Achy Breaky Heart." From then on, everything was line dance crap or worse (ahem, Shania Twain) and the creativity disappeared, at least from the major labels' rosters.
