Editorial Review:
Cover art, front: a behatted (of course) Dwight, face completely hidden. Back: a shapely, half-nude model sporting a Persistence of Memory-style clock eyeing a sink overflowing with water and calendar pages. Title tune: one of Yoakam's most hardcore Bakersfield 'tonkers. It sits alongside a couple of rockers, a handful of inspired weepers, and two inexorably flowing country-pop numbers ("A Thousand Miles from Nowhere" and "Ain't That Lonely Yet") that deserved every second of airplay they got. He'd be even better when he entered the studio again (for Gone), but the only slouching he does here is in the photographs. --Rickey Wright

2008-09-03 - excellent cd, received in the mail within a few days recommend this person to anyone who wishes cds in good condition and fast service
Perfection!
2008-03-25 - Need I say more... ok this is with out a doubt a must have country classic. Dwight cranks out classic after drinking classic. If this album does not inspire you to close down the bar, go home with a stranger then quietly make your escape out the window before they wake up then you basically have no soul and probably don't enjoy music...
Outstanding Variety of Styles
2008-02-28 - This is a much more varied CD stylistically than earlier Dwight Yoakam CDs like "Guitars, Cadillacs, Etc., Etc." and "Buenas Noches From A Lonely Room." There are some really great songs here. When I first listened to the CD, certain songs made me think of certain other artists: "Pocket Of A Clown" and "Fast As You" both made me think of Roy Orbison, and "A Thousand Miles From Nowhere" would have fit in comfortably on a Traveling Wilburys album. The title track "This Time" was reminiscent of Buck Owens, while "Wild Ride" had a Bruce Springsteen feel to it. And "Ain't That Lonely Yet" brought to mind Warren Zevon. And yet, all of these were authentically Dwight Yoakam as well. These are really enjoyable songs that hold up well.
My Favorite
2006-07-24 - This is my favorite CD of Dwight's. I love every song on this CD. My favorite song on this CD is A Thousand Miles From Nowhere. This is country music at its best. I love the video also because it has trains in an old train yard and I love trains. Fast As You is also a good song. I love the beat of the song and it is a good song to country line dance to. Ain't that Lonely Yet is also a very good song with a relaxing melody. This Time is a very good song and it is pure country music at its best. It reminds me of Buck Owens singing in the 60's. My least favorite song on the CD is Pocket Of A Clown. All in all this CD is the finest work Dwight has ever done.
Hi Ho Silver. This is quality country, man 
2006-02-01 - Dwight Yoakam has a good ear for what`s quality country, inspired from the "bakersfield school" of great country star`s like Buck Owens,etc. This CD are Yoakam in more or less topform, except for a few letdowns, this CD shines. Track 1 Pocket of a Clown is a good opener, played in a relaxable speed, this one delivers. Yoakam`s voice has a brightness and certain coolnees , which give him a certain sting all trough. But, hey. The best Track on the CD Track 2 Thousand miles from nowhere, is a minor masterpiece when it come`s to "hitsong writing". From the beginning to the end it has flaire and style, marked all over. The windy guitar and Yoakam`s voice delivers something what we can called "outer space "music. The song kicks you off the ground, and you nearly belive you can fly trough room and space when you listen to it. Track 3 Home for sale is an ok slow country song, which doesn`t have a build up to a climax, but are anyway relaxable to listen to. Track 4 This Time, is classical "walkalong" country from the Bakersfield school of music, and Yoakam`s voice has that "Buck Owens" scwung all over.Track 5 Two doors down has much of the same mood all trough, but doesn`t really kicks in gear. Track 6 Ain`t that lonley yet, has much of the same quality as Track 2. That sometimes "undescribable" airy outer space feel, that fill joy into your`e mind and soul, that also Yoakam sings in the song: you hungry for some more.
Track 7 King of Fools are more or less traditional country, but have some weak spots in between. Track 8 Fast as you can, is somekind of an inconsistency style rocken roller, which has some high or lowpoints all trough. Track 9 Try not
to look so pretty are fine and put`s you in a "quiet is the new loud" mood. Track 10 Wild Ride, is a blues rocker, which sounds like "Rolling Stones" on a bad day. With this the 5 stars are gone.Sorry to say. Track 11. Lonesome Day is a letdown too. But hey there. Hi Ho Silver. This is anyway quality country, man !
