Time and again, Alan Jackson has demonstrated a gift for the backward glance. The pull of memory, the golden glow of better days, the first blush of love — the singer-songwriter has shown his ability to evoke nostalgia without succumbing to sentimentality as far back as “I’d Love You All Over Again,”
It was an emotional farewell to a master songwriter at Alan Jackson's Dallas show on Saturday.
Although he made the surprising confession midway through that his whiskey-smooth baritone voice was struggling. “I’m not singing a 100%,” Jackson said, after violently clearing his throat. “I’m dealing with some stuff; but I’m going to give you all I got.” So voluminous is his chart-topping output that, despite plenty of fan favorites making an appearance, he still easily skipped another dozen tracks that would’ve been welcome. In between abbreviated versions of “Gone Country,” “Here in the Real World,” “Chasin’ That Neon Rainbow” and — yes, of course — “Dallas,” Jackson left plenty of time to reflect on his life and career: “I lived the American dream,” he said early on.
