Don't Look Back is terrific. On the whole it is very trad, but with just enough 90s touches to avoid sounding like a pure nostalgia trip. One song in particular, "Waiting on You," fascinates me because it's got a harsh, spiky sound and an almost angry Green vocal that's pretty fabulous and nearly unique in the Green canon. The album drags a bit in the second half, but it rebounds nicely at the end with the title track and the jaunty "Love in Motion." I think it was by far his best studio album since Truth N Time, and better than his trio of secular 'comeback' albums from the last decade.
