...Taylor and Jackson Browne. Nonetheless, many songs on Black's first three albums seemed stiff and traditional; the intensity of his emotions was displayed only rarely. On No Time to Kill, collaborators help bring out the best in him. In A Bad Goodbye, he sings a duet with Wynonna Judd, who draws out an emotional edge in his ! voice. On Happiness Alone, Black and co-writer Jimmy Buffet turn the usual country formula inside out, creating a refreshing pop song with just an echo of country twang: "A man can't survive on happiness alone...

It has been a season of bountiful musicals -- Crazy for You for Gershwin nostalgia, Jelly's Last Jam for show-business angst and racial relevance, Falsettos for AIDS poignancy and artistic perfection, Man of La Mancha and The Most Happy Fella...
