| Richly talented Contemporary Country artist Vince Gill | | | | 4. Someday |
| has released him latest album titled Next Big Thing | | | | 5. These Broken Hearts |
| and Wow! It's really a good one. | | | | 6. We Had It All |
| Unfortunately, it's not everyday that I get a CD from | | | | 7. Young Man's Town |
| an artist that I can just pop in and comfortably listen | | | | 8. Real Mean Bottle |
| to from beginning to end. There is usually a song or | | | | 9. Whippoorwill River |
| two that I just can't force myself to get through. | | | | 10. Sun's Gonna Shine On You, The |
| Not at all the case with Next Big Thing. Every track is | | | | 11. From Where I Stand |
| enjoyable and was pretty easy for me to listen to | | | | 12. You Ain't Foolin' Nobody |
| from start to finish. | | | | 13. Old Time Fiddle |
| One of the nicer things about a CD like this is with | | | | 14. Without You |
| this level of talent even if Contemporary Country | | | | 15. Two Hearts |
| isn't your favorite style you still can't help but | | | | 16. This Old Guitar And Me |
| appreciate the greatness of the artist. | | | | 17. In These Last Few Days |
