About Me
Billboard Review of Hal's Latest Hal Ketchum is back with a shimmering new effort that boasts a radio-friendly melody and singalong chorus. "Just This Side of Heaven (Hal-Lelujah)" is a well-written love song riddled with romantic imagery. The best part of this delicious treat is Ketchum's vocal. He has long had one of the most unique voices in the industry. He is a stylist in the best sense of the word, an artist able to infuse any lyric with a sense of drama and urgency. This should remind programmers why he was blessed with a string of hits early on in his career. Here's hoping his brethren at country radio show him a little more love.
