Lynyrd Skynyrd
begins to show signs of wear on their fourth album,
Gimme Back My Bullets
. The band had switched producers, hiring
Tom Dowd
, the producer who served
Atlantic
's roster so well during the label's heyday. Unfortunately, he wasn't perfectly suited for
Skynyrd
, at least at this point in their history. The group had toured regularly since the release of their debut and it showed, not just in their performance, but in the songwriting of
Ronnie Van Zant
, who had been so consistent through their first three albums. Not to say that he was spent -- the title track was defiant as
"All I Can Do Is Write About It"
was affecting, while
"Searching"
was a good
ballad
and
"Double Trouble"
was a good rocker. These songs, however, were surrounded by songs that leaned to the dull side of generic (unlike those on
Nuthin' Fancy
) and
Dowd
's production didn't inject energy into the group's performances. This doesn't mean
is a bad record, since the group was still in fairly good shape and they had some fine songs, but coming after three dynamite albums, it was undoubtedly a disappointment. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
