Title: Not Fooling Around
Product review: Not technically a debut (seePoint of No Return), this was still Lauderdale's first published album. While later albums were better (seePretty Close to the TruthandEvery Second Counts), this is still a great album. Different from anything else (though with some similarity to producer Rodney Crowell's best work), this album showcased Lauderdale's terrific songwriting skills (well recognized by more successful singers), as well as his own strong vocal ability."The King of Broken Hearts" is just a great song (and not at all the schlocky country standard treatment the title suggests), and "Where the Sidewalk Ends" is a more up-tempo close second.
