With his brilliant debut WHO NEEDS PICTURES, Brad Paisley does the near-impossible--releases a debut album in Nashville that isn`t full of songs that all sound the same. The pure country of WHO NEEDS PICTURES is Paisley`s artistic vision inside and out--he co-wrote 12 of the 13 tracks, hired an old pal as producer, booked his road band to play on the album, and handled lead guitar himself. The result is a CD chock-full of expertly-crafted songs--some touching, some laugh-out-loud funny--coupled with tight, surprising arrangements. The beautiful "He Didn`t Have to Be" is written from the perspective of a new dad hoping he can be as good a parent as his stepfather was to him. The hilarious "It Never Woulda Worked Out Anyway," with its jazzy Western swing arrangement, is about a guy who, after being turned down by his crush, proceeds to wreck every one of her subsequent relationships. And the melodic title track ponders the phenomenon of developing an old roll of film, only to find forgotten pictures of a former flame. WHO NEEDS PICTURES proves that West Virginia native Paisley is the real deal--a veritable tower of talent whose future work will be eagerly anticipated.
