Returning his longtime backing outfit, Lyle Lovett's Large Band, to an album's title and credits for the first time since 1989's LYLE LOVETT AND HIS LARGE BAND, the excellent IT'S NOT BIG, IT'S LARGE showcases Lovett's stylistic shifts between folkish, largely acoustic singer-songwriter material and hot, horn-powered western swing. Lovett's quirky sense of humor is largely restrained here, with more of a focus on heartfelt love songs like the wistful "South Texas Girl" and "All Downhill From Here." Starting the album off with a sprightly take on Lester Young's swing classic "Tickle Toe" is another nice touch. The album is also available in a deluxe limited edition that includes a bonus DVD of live performances and behind-the-scenes videos.
