Review

Some of Waylon Jennings's brightest moments have come with galloping Texas near-rockers like "Are You Sure Hank Done It This Way," so Closing In on the Fire's emphasis on boogie and blues is no surprise. Nor is the basic thrust of many of the songs here; Waylon will continue delivering bemused observations like "Back Home (Where I Come From)" till the planet spins off its axis. Exceptions include the sweetly effective ballad "Be Mine" (with guitar support by Mark Knopfler) and one real clunker, Sting's "She's Too Good for Me," which suggests that its writer should stop trying to tell jokes. Although not stunning like the belated reissue of 1975's Dreaming My Dreams, Closing In still puts Jennings's point across satisfactorily. --Rickey Wright
