The Naked Ride Home is the twelfth album by American singer-songwriter Jackson Browne, released in 2002 (see 2002 in music). It peaked at number 36 on The Billboard 200 chart. The single "The Night Inside Me" reached number 25 on the Adult Contemporary chart. As of February 2004 the album had sold 139,000 copies in United States according to Nielsen Soundscan. Guests included Keb' Mo' and Greg Leisz. Reception Mark Deming, writing for AllMusic, remarked that "the craft of Browne's songwriting is still strong, and his performances are pin-sharp and passionate, but unfortunately the very real strengths of The Naked Ride Home only make its flaws all the more glaring – namely, that Browne's muse hasn't taken him anyplace new and interesting in some time, and even though it's clear he still takes the arts of songwriting and recording very seriously, the results lack the depth or the impact of his earlier work." James Hunter, writing for Rolling Stone, felt that the album delivered "a varied midtempo dependability that turns richer and more resonant upon re-listenings," and that it was "looser, warmer and more live-sounding than Browne's recent work – yet still as passionately crafted and sung ... he is the sound of unfrantic L.A. cool engaged with the long view."
