http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.2548&rws=%2Fjim-lauderdale%2Fmusic-videos.rssJim Lauderdale is a singer-songwriter whose songwriting career has far outstripped his success as a singer. He's been covered numerous times by George Strait, as well as by Vince Gill, Mark Chesnutt, and many other mainstream Nashville hit-makers. However, it's somewhat of a mystery that he has not become a singing star. Lauderdale has a wonderful, soul-inflected voice with a broad range. He is also a kinetic and engaging performer. In a perfect world he would top the charts alongside Brooks and Dunn. Mickey Newbury, Billy Joe Shaver and Steve Young have had similar careers, so Lauderdale is in very good company. - Tom HeymanAmericanaen720Fri, 27 Nov 2009 07:02:40 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.2548&rws=%2Fjim-lauderdale%2Fmusic-videos.rss Jim Lauderdale is a singer-songwriter whose songwriting career has far outstripped his success as a singer.
