Editorial Review:
On his first totally controlled album for his own label, Toby Keith adds another title to his résumé: producer. Throughout, the former Oklahoma wildcatter, who's taken heat for his blustery patriotism and outspoken remarks, seems to be seeking new respect, shifting the focus off of politics and grandstanding and back to his talents as a musician. While his last album, White Trash with Money, found him flirting with R&B and adding horns for a bit more bump, his latest effort finds him nearly in a singer-songwriter mood, taking more time to craft the sound of the tracks and laying down his own harmonies. He's still relying on gimmicky wordplay and cartoon puffery for his full-tilt radio numbers ("High Maintenance Woman," "Big Dog Daddy"), but he also showcases the sensitive, ballad-heavy side of his personality that hasn't been as apparent since the '90s ("Does That Blue Moon Ever Shine on You," "We Were in Love"). He achieves this with some fine cowriting--the winsome "I Know She Hung the Moon" and "Walk It Off," and the lusty "Burnin' Moonlight." He also finds two excellent covers, Fred Eaglesmith's "White Rose" (which combines nostalgia for full-service gas stations with that of a teen's coming of age) and the thoughtful Craig Wiseman/Chris Wallin ballad "Love Me If You Can." The latter, a quiet social commentary, revisits Keith's familiar theme of holding one's ground, but with a far more compassionate approach than he's tried before. Consider it a meditation from a brash king of the hill who hasn't forgotten how to be humble. --Alanna Nash
Big Dog Daddy Reviews:
Contemporary Country Music 
2009-06-13 - Good recording. Great price. Immediate delivery. I did not, however, like the song.
Too late for free.. 
2008-11-27 - This is an excellent song and i like it alot. Matter of fact i pretty much always liked Toby Keith. It's too bad that you guys put this song as free because it's too late. I already have the album.
It might have been a better idea to make "She's a hottie" free because that's the only new song on 35 Biggest Hits. :)
Anyway, i give this song 5 stars. A+
How Do U Like Me NOW...Big Dog Daddy??
2008-11-22 - Sexy sexy sexy! I still remember that ugly yellow suit he wore after 5 years of nothing and that night I think he walked away with about 6 awards!! He just got up there and yelled... "HOW DO U LIKE ME NOW!!" This song has his Toby KICK that makes him one of the feel good country rockers out there LOVED by women (of COURSE, did I mention sexy?) and the guys can even admit they like him too. He's got that Hank Williams Jr rugged rough cowboy way about him that just makes you not be able to say no to buying his music! U can't go wrong with Toby singin!!
Toby does it again
2008-10-24 - I am a Toby Keith fan and really enjoy his music and onstage presentations. There are songs that I enjoy more then others and some do not make it to the top 10. I really enjoyed the song big dog daddy since it reminded me of earlier country. The album as a whole has a variety and Toby's voice is at it's best in alot of the song. Again not all of the songs are top 10, but if you like Toby Keith, as I do, you will love this.
Great Rock and Soul
2008-08-12 - I love this CD. My favorite number is "Big Dog Daddy" because it truly rocks. Don't want to date myself, but I'm from original rock with Gerry Lee Lewis, Little Richard etc. I always turn up the volume on this one. The instrumentals are spectacular and generous. I hate for it to end. I never tire of this album. It has great variety, nostalgia, heart, thought and humor.
