ESSEX JUNCTION
-- Alan Jackson served up the musical equivalent of tasty
comfort food at his show Saturday at the Champlain Valley
Fair.
So the offerings weren't particularly daring. The
crowd sure ate them up. And why not? Jackson's songs had all
the warmth and conviviality of a small-town family diner
that's been in business for generations. As always, Jackson
emphasized family, love, memories and fun, all delivered in
that smooth deep trademark Georgian voice. As always with
Jackson, the music, the songs, the lyrics were pure tradition;
, no bells and whistles. Just country music, straight up.
As Jackson himself sang, too much of a good thing is a
good thing.
