BRAD PAISLEY

This Is Country Music (Sony)

HCOUNTRY music guitar gunslinger Paisley crosses the border into rock and roll so effortlessly that he’s been signed up for this year’s V Festival. His new album offers more of the same: speedy guitar licks, pop hooks, unashamed melancholy and a stellar guest list including Don Henley, Sheryl Crow and Clint Eastwood (who whistles on the spaghetti Western instrumental named after him!) Does what it says on the tin. PC
