On this Texas group's first major-label release, which debuted in the Top Ten of the Billboard Top Country Albums chart, frontman Rogers and Americana star Randy Foster reprise the songwriting strength that marked the band's last album, Rollercoaster. But here, Foster--who again handles producer's duties--takes the quartet in a different direction, particularly on "Kiss Me in the Dark," a tune he cowrote with former hitmaker George Ducas. It's a sexy, radio-friendly song of skin-and-sheets surrender, and like several other efforts on Just a Matter of Time, delivers a libidinous afterglow. What it doesn't do is keep enough of the band's essential renegade character at its core, despite a smattering of Southern rock underpinnings. While Rogers is an affecting lead singer, and his wounded baritone excels at conveying the heat of obsession and fevered longing, in the end this all comes off reminiscent of a Firefall album from the late '70s--a bit too mellow, too AC pop, and too unsure of what it really wants to be, except successful. --Alanna Nash

Album Description

"We were really conscious about not letting the fact that this was going to be our major-label debut mess with our heads" says Rogers, "Because to us, this record is really just the next step. For many folks who don't know about the movement that's going on down here, it'll be their first look at us. But we approached this like we were making our fifth record, not our first. And there was a lot of trust from the label in terms of, `You guys go out there and make a record and turn it in, and we'll leave you alone and let you do your thing.'"

In exchange for that creative freedom (and the luxury of a considerably bigger budget than they'd ever had before), the band and Foster delivered on their end of the bargain. Like Rollercoaster before it, Just a Matter of Time plays like a rock 'n' roll album with a country heart as big as Texas, or a straight-up country record played by a killer rock 'n' roll band. But in fine country tradition, it's the uniform quality of the songs that really steals the show. All but two were co-written by Rogers (four with Foster himself, a potent combo that yielded many of Rollercoaster's brightest moments, including the single and "Somebody Take Me Home," later covered by Kenny Chesney for his The Road and the Radio album); the other two were contributed by bassist Richardson (a former front man in his own right) and Foster and George Ducas, who first struck gold co-writing Foster's first big solo hit, "Just Call Me Lonesome." Here, they contribute the irresistible "Kiss Me in the Dark! ," which was pretty much destined to be the lead single from the very first time the band heard it. "If we were going to cut an outside song, it had to be such a great song that you couldn't pass on it," says Rogers, smiling. "It would have to be a single."

"We just wanted this record to be an honest representation of where we were at when we signed our first major-label deal," says Rogers. "I think it's the best thing we've ever done, but … we're going to make another record pretty soon, and hopefully we'll feel like that's the best record we've ever done, too. The idea is to just continue to raise the bar."

Fantastic!.......2007-05-29

I stumbled onto RRB through pandora.com and have just been absolutely thrilled. After hearing songs from both Rollercoaster and Just A Matter of Time, I bought both CD's and love them both from beginning to end. As far as the Radney Foster influence, well, I don't know a single Radney Foster song. What's the deal here? It seems people are getting caught up in what they expected the album to be and the fear of what it wouldn't be instead of appreciating what it is.

Best effort yet!!!.......2006-12-06

I can't believe the bad reviews that some have posted about this album. Overall, the cd is solid top to bottom. There isn't a weak track on the entire cd. If you like the other albums by RRB, you'll like this one, as well. A lot of Texans get ticked that they've gone mainstream, but they are still the same.

Randy Rogers Rocks.......2006-11-10

Have you been to their shows? This album is like a show! Randy's voice sounds great and Brady's fiddle is amazing. The cd fits every mood, listen you will be addicted!

A new Randy Rogers.......2006-10-12

I must admit, I was very skeptical about the new Randy Rogers Band release, with there first major record label release I was worried that they would become just another Nashville sounding band. Well I was right, they were different, don't get me wrong I still like there music but it just isn't the Randy Rogers that I know and love, they have lost some of the sound that was so characteristically Randy Rogers Band. Obviously everyone is going to be talking about there latest single "Kiss Me In The Dark," while I do like the song its just so unlike any Randy Rogers song I have ever listened to. I also like the song "You don't know me," to me this is the most like any old song written by him, when people first listen to the new album in my truck this was the first song I played for them! The lyrics on this album are far different than anything the band has done before, its easy to pick up the outside influences, which I wish weren't there. I'm still drawn to these guys, you cant replace Randy Rogers voice, its one of the most unique voices in country music, I hope everybody at least gives there new album a chance, its still Randy Rogers and its still good, just a little different. If you are just now getting into the Randy Rogers Band then I would recommend "Like It Used To Be" and "Rollercoaster" from there previous albums, you wont be disappointed!

Passionate Music from the Heart of Texas .......2006-09-30

If you've ever met Randy you will know that he is the Will Rogers of Texas Country Music. He never met a man he didn't like, but has met at least one woman who has broken his heart. Nights on the road playing and partying with some of the most talented artists on the Texas music scene have spawned some incredibly passionate songwriting partnerships on Randy Rogers Band's new CD. Anyone who has done any livin at all can't help but have memories stirred up from this collection of hard hitting songs. From true heart breakers like Whiskey's Got A Hold On Me and If Anyone Asks to sexy songs like You Could Change My Mind and the bedroom ballad Kiss Me In The Dark RRB really gets the blood flowing. Randy belts them out with a haunting honesty that hits deep inside you. The band's awsome insrumental talents aren't hidden by the over-engineering that clutters many Nashville produced CDs. You Don't Know Me written by bass player Jon Richardson highlights each musician's incredible talent as the music drifts from one solo to the next. I can listen to RRBs music over and over, it just doesn't get old. Think this aint true Texas music? Don't just listen to the music, go see Randy and the guys when they come to town. Get close and let it sink into your skin like mesquite smoke from a campfire on a hot Hill Country night.

In spite of his many new forays into the world of acting, Randy Travis will always be country music's Great Stoneface, an unreadable character with one of the five greatest male voices in country history. Travis's singing is so rich, so spot-on, he could revarnish an entire patio with a single three-minute tune. Travis live is just like Travis on record, except that when he has a good audience there's a buoyancy not usually found on disc, which happens to be the case on this concert album. Clocking in at nearly 80 minutes, the CD is a companion to the DVD, released simultaneously, but it's more than just a Travis hits package: it's an hour and 20 minutes of Travis at his best, doing his best tunes, for an audience that really cares. It doesn't get any warmer than this. --Henry Cabot Beck

Customer Reviews:

Randy Travis at his Best!!.......2007-02-02

This is a great CD! I just love it and listen to it over & over! I am a true Randy Travis fan and have most of his CDs. This one is one of his very best ones! It ranks right up there with You And You Alone as his best work to date! I just wish I could find it on cassette too. If you love to hear Randy sing you will want this in your collection!

Why, Why, Why???.......2003-09-13

I love Randy Travis, and I have yet to find a bad album in his discography. That's why I hate to include this in his discography.

To me, this is kind of like an "unauthorized" release. It just doesn't fit with the rest of his material. And yes, that is weird to me, since this is basically a greatest hits cd.

But getting down to business. Randy is in good voice here, and he does the best he can. This is just another night on stage, with the same old songs.

I wish he would have forgotton about a live release and went ahead and waited and had another studio album.

This is one of those cds you will buy, listen to a few times, then find under the seat of your car, and think to yourself, "I forgot I had this."

Just pass this one on by.

great live album.......2002-12-20

Just simply a great live album.A must have for any fan.

18 x 3 minutes of the same stuff.......2002-11-22

When travelling the States (frequently coming over from Europe) it's hard to avoid Randy Travis on any of the stations, and I must admit that I have hummed along to a lot of his songs, too. Even bought a CD in 1998 because of the strength of hits such as as "Digging' up Bones" and "Out of My Bones".

As a music fan, I've always loved live recordings, so I went and bought this one recently. Randy Travis admittedly has got a remarkable voice, but after three or four tracks (and strangely they all clock in at exactly 3 minutes) I found the individual songs pretty much alike, be it his recently Gospel-flavored stuff or older hits, not too much variety here. The arrangements are C&W-neat but sterile throughout, including the one-liners between songs.

I really love handmade country music, but this recording (as well as the DVD) offer just too little variation to anybody but the dedicated fan. Other great live performers with roots in Country Music (be sure to check out Willie Nelson, Dan Fogelberg or John Denver concert recordings) give their audiences an evening of Country PLUS Blues, Rock, Pop - whatever, and they've also had a hand in writing their own stuff, while Randy Travis basically just interprets the same three-minute song over and over again (custom-written by others).

With a great voice like his, Randy Travis could and should really aim for higher ground. Sorry if anybody feels annoyed by this, but not all of the ratings can be 5-stars :-)

Randy Travis Performs it Live in "Just a Matter of Time".......2001-09-01

Whether you are looking for that CD with a lot of great Randy Travis hits, or whether you are looking for a CD that will give you the feeling of attending that Randy Travis concert you've never been able to attend, this one's for you. From the most upbeat hits like "before You Kill Us all" and "Better class of Losers" to the ballads of "Spirit of a Boy, wisdom of a Man," you can enjoy that soothing baritone of one of the best traditional country singers still recording today. As a reviewer who had the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to attend the show, I can say the crowd was certainly energized by the variety of songs this release has to offer. You too can join in, clapping along to such songs as "If I Didn't Have You," "Shallow Water," and others as the audience did and just sitting back and listening to that melodic voice sing his rendition of the old Brook Benton tune "Just a Matter of Time,." "Look Heart, No Hands," and "Baptism." With the CD nearing the end, the two encore songs of "Runaway Train" and the old Roger miller tune "King of the Road" will only leave you wanting more. Unlike when I attended it live last December of 2000, with the CD you can just hit the replay button and sit back and relax. Now you've got to admit, there are not too many live shows you can just have instant replay.

If you have had the chance to previously attend one of Randy's shows, it is sure to bring back memories of many of those good old hits you heard that evening.

If you have never experienced Randy's performances or never experienced any of Randy's music, why not consider it now. Available in DVD, VHS, CD and cassette, each version has a little something to offer. While the CD and tape are in general the songs and introductions to the songs themselves, the VHS has one short interview prior to the show, a joke and introduction of the accompanying band members, while the DVD (although the show portions is much the same as the VHS) has an extensive interview one can enjoy.

I made the trip from Texas to California to attend this show live but now you can enjoy it in the comfort of your own living room or wherever you choose. Don't let this one get away!!!

Good Texas Blues.......2004-04-24

As well as country-ish and cajun-ish sounds. The variety of artists on this CD is impressive. While I don't like everyone I would say there is something here for everyone. My favorites include the "Curly Stomp (in B-flat)" by Curly "Barefoot" Miller, "I'd Rather Drink Muddy Water," and "Saint Peter Have Mercy."

The music is tight. The feeling is genuine. These mostly unknown artists will have you clamoring for more and wondering why they didn't get wider attention.

I highly recommend this CD!
