Brad Paisley goes to "Play"
Paisley and King play "Let the Good Times Roll," while Urban and Paisley dish out the playful "Start a Band" on the disc, which drops Nov. 4.
"More Than Just This Song," written by Paisley and Wariner, is a tribute to those first guitar heroes who gave them their start on the six-string. Paisley also salutes a friend and hero, the Owens, joining Buck on "Come on In," an Owens-penned-and-recorded track that had remained previously unfinished.
Other songs are gently jazzy swing of "Les Is More," a salute to the great Les Paul; "Kim" and the energeti "Huckleberry Jam," named for Paisley's wife and son, respectively; and the continuation of a Paisley album tradition, with the inclusion of a gospel classic, this time a beautifully rendered acoustic performance of "What a Friend We Have in Jesus."
"Little" Jimmy Dickens, who plays "Grandpa Paisley" in the comic "Pre-Cluster Cluster Pluck Prequel (Prelude)," will participate once again in a Paisley project. He will be in the all-star guitar jam, "Cluster Pluck," featuring guests James Burton, Vince Gill, John Jorgensen, Albert Lee, Brent Mason, Redd Volkaert and Wariner.
Paisley is currently on the road with his Paisley Party Tour with Jewel.

CD reviews for Brad Paisley
Brad Paisley isn't content to keep doing the same old. In fact, this is probably the least traditional country outing in his career. Yet, a few things remain intact - great guitar playing and singing and a sense of humor without being too kitschy.
In fact, Paisley manages to combine the ultra serious with his typical sense of humor. The seriousness is never more apparent from Paisley than on the controversial Accidental Racist with LL Cool J, who helped write and perform it. ...
Brad Paisley's new live hits CD is a bit of a tease. That's because it only goes half way in replicating the true live Paisley experience. Watching the accompanying concert videos at a Paisley show, whether the venue screen is showing Andy Griffith during Waitin' on a Woman or the montage of recently-deceased celebrities that accompanies When I Get Where I'm Going, reveal how Paisley simply must be seen to be fully enjoyed.
Nevertheless, Paisley in concert and captured on ...
Brad Paisley has grown up on his eighth album. Yes, the West Virginian maintains a sense of humor, but apparently aging has left its mark on a maturing singer who has never forsaken his country roots. That is ever so apparent in songs like Anything Like Me and Oh Yeah, You're Gone. The former finds Paisley looking at the passage of time through his son's life in a tender, but not sappy look. On the latter, he's a five-year-old boy who doesn't get what he wants, which his grandfather notices. ...
