Here for the Party, this sassy, strong-singing Redneck Woman's 2004 debut, was a giant smash, but All Jacked Up's even better: diverse, rockin', and topped by a sensuous, soulful surprise bonus-track version of Billie Holiday's "Good Morning Heartache." Wilson kick-starts this guitar-and-fiddle-fired CD with the title track--a whiskey-drinkin' sequel to "Redneck"--and the ode to down-home women "California Girls." "Skoal Ring" suggests that the couple that chaws together stays together, and "One Bud Wiser" is a crafty tongue-in-cheek weeper that pays tribute to George Jones in both its lyrics and Wilson's copycat phrasing. Another legend, Merle Haggard, celebrates salt-of-the-earth American virtues with Wilson on the duet "Politically Uncorrect." And "Not Bad for a Bartender" is three and a half minutes of autobiography, detailing the eighth-grade education, floor-sweeping, and saloon-keeping that were all stops on Wilson's unlikely road to success. Funny, fiery, and moving, All Jacked Up proves this 32-year-old's career has plenty of mileage left. --Ted Drozdowski

3 out of 5 stars Worth Saving From the Dollar Bin.......2007-05-29

The title track is a swinging rocker and the hidden track covering Billie Holiday's "Good Morning Heartache" is interesting, even though it pales in comparison to the original. "One Bud Wiser" also has nice old-school groove. The rest of this album is unexceptional country pop, though "California Girls" stands out for its cultural commentary.

5 out of 5 stars The Woman Is Hot!.......2007-05-16

Gretchen has an awesome singing voice that rocks, as well as soft voice for the tender songs. And she writes. I think she's awesome and I'm a 61 year old grandma who still loves COUNTRY, rock 'n roll and gospel.

5 out of 5 stars A great album of interesting songs and music.......2007-05-03

I was impressed with the album "all jacked up". It has a very interesting list of songs and sound.
Gretchen has a good unique strong sound to her voice and her style of music. I liked the mix of humor,
truth, and songs about the working class. She has a good mixture of classic country,upbeat rock,slow
feel good music,and a few tunes that you could here in a piano bar. They sounded cool to me.

5 out of 5 stars Adds a soul to Country.......2007-01-10

Gretchen Wilson has an old soul and you hear it in her music. She has a powerful voice that's full of emotion. She draws you in and makes you want to pay attention! Gretchen is fun and light, as well as, deep and reflective. This is a great combination. Enjoy!

3 out of 5 stars Some great, some weak.......2006-11-07

Gretchen has the ability to make great songs, and she does that on this album. All Jacked Up is a classic, song of the year material, and One Bud Wiser is way up there as well. There are also a few weak ones, such as a rather staid and dated Full Time Job and Politically Uncorrect. California Girls is well done, but taking jabs at other women, even Paris Hilton, is unnecessary. This girl is an amazing talent, but I suspect is getting messed up by the Nashville suits. A little artistic freedom would make her one of the greatest.

3 out of 5 stars Not as good as her first album........2006-02-20

This is a good album. It just ain't as good as her first one. Im my opinion, it could of been better. I am a HUGE Gretchen Wilson fan. I'm not dissin' her. I just thought her second album would out do her first. And in my opinion, "Here For The Party" was the best. I would still recommend this album.

5 out of 5 stars i enjoy the cd.......2005-12-13

i think this is her best cd. i liked redneck woman so much but this one's better. there is a fire about gretchen wilson and you can hear that fire echo in this recording. i wish other acts who are nothing more than acts would be more like miss wilson and get real. everything down to her lyrics and her outfits, she know who she is, where she came from and where she is going, and that is heard throughout this new album. she is already a legend in the making. so it's just the best. miss corinna fugate has dream like vocals, miss miranda lambert can go from sultry to sassy in an instant, but i say miss gretchen wilson will stay queen of country.

5 out of 5 stars MUST HAVE!! .......2005-10-26

It is unbelievable how great this CD is! I know is is hard to beat, this CD is better than "Here For The Party". I put it in my CD player and have not been able to take it out. I'm sure you heard the great single "All Jacked Up", well there is a lot more where that came from. "California Girls" is another fun song, poking fun at those "Hollywood Types". More serious songs like "I Don't Feel Like Loving You Today" is a wonderful love song, and "He Ain't Even Cold Yet," another great song. Then the love song "Skoal Ring" where she don't care about a thing "except a man with a Skoal ring". "Politically Unncorrect" is a powerful song which Merle Haggard sings on. Don't hesitate to buy this CD, it is AWESOME!!! I also own the Dualdisc. It is great. It has the "All Jacked Up" video, a great interview, photos, and more. I didn't have any problems at all with the disc. It played on all my CD and DVD players. The CD sold over 264,000 copies in the first week!! I debuted at #1 on bothe the country and pop charts. That is a huge accomplishment.

I also highly reccomend Gretchen's first CD "Here For The Party" Also, Big & Rich's "Horse Of A Different Color" and their brand new CD "Comin' To Your City" in stores 11/15/05. And check out Cowboy Troy's "Loco Motive"

4 out of 5 stars Subtler Approach Makes This One a Winner.......2005-10-21

Ever since the release of her enormously successful debut album "Here For the Party" in mid-2004, Gretchen Wilson has been on a rollercoaster ride at the speed of light that includes incessant touring and press. Consequently, the conspicuously quick release of her sophomore effort, "All Jacked Up," which debuted at #1 on the Billboard Top 200 Albums, chart is indeed surprising. Where did she find to co-write and record another LP so quickly? It's a tough question, but the most important thing here is that the new material is just as solid as her debut.

The title track and lead single begins the collection on a caffeinated note, finding Wilson drinking more liquor than she can handle one night in a bar. As a result, she subsequently scuffles with a girl of "10'2" and a bad attitude," not to mention backing her car into a traffic light to the delight of the townsfolk. She also sings of her delight for cowboys in "Skoal Ring" and speaks her mind about the Golden State in "California Girls" with her sense of humor on full throttle.

"There ain't nothing wrong with plastic surgery/Well, Dolly Parton never looked so good to me/Everybody oughta be exactly who they want to be/But that Paris Hilton gets under my skin/With her big, fake smile and her painted-on tan/Never had a chance at a real man."

Still, this record isn't all fun and games. "Politically Uncorrect," where Wilson trades lines with singer/songwriter Merle Haggard, finds her rooting for the underdogs of our nation, proclaiming she's "for the low man on the totem pole." She tackles a similar theme on "Full Time Job," where she tips her hat to those who have the most difficult occupation of all: Mothers.

"It's the hardest gig I've ever known/I work my fingers to the bone/Yeah, the dishes and diapers never stop/Lousy pay, there ain't no 401k/I know this may come as a shock/But this here's a full time job."

Other key tracks include "Not Bad For a Bartender," where the Pocahontas, Illinois native remains wide-eyed at her recent fame, her realization of how coldhearted women can be on "He Ain't Even Cold Yet" and puts herself first in the near-breakup ballad "I Don't Feel Like Loving You Today."

Although she may be bordering on too much ubiquity and her image is cliché, the quality of "All Jacked Up" proves Wilson is indeed no flash in the pan. There is no doubt that she is a talented writer and song stylist, and will continue to make solid records for a long time to come.

The DualDisc version of the album includes interview footage, a photo gallery, all the songs in LPCM stereo and the music video for the title track.

1 out of 5 stars Beware of this Disc.......2005-10-06

Just a note the "Dual Disc" is something to beware of. Just got the disc in & put it in my computer to play as I was working, locked up my whole machine. Also won't play on my Pioneer DVD player in my living room. Only buy this disc if you like throwing money away or want to have to buy a special junky CD player for the ability to listen to what you spent your money on.
