New Country star Collin Raye has always excelled at romantic ballads and songs of social commentary, but although there are several of the former on TRACKS ("Landing in Love," "You Still Take Me There") this album's real reason for living is the absolutely extraordinary "Harder Cards." It's the story of an abused wife who's just shot her husband, sung from the point of view of a cop on the scene. Stark, unsentimental, and (incidentally) hooky in the extreme, it's almost worthy of Steve Earle. It stands out from the rest of the album (save for the concluding "She's Gonna Fly," which is about Alzheimers Disease) like a tarantula on a piece of angelfood cake.
