From the two-step clarity of “Little Maggie,” through the hits “Loving Arms” and “Little Victories,” and the cinematic authority of ‘calling-card’ songs including “Levee Town,” “Frankie and Sue,” and “What Are We Gonna Do,” Smith has built a catalog of songs and performances that should place him in the highest echelon of contemporary troubadours. Yet, he remains a rather well-kept secret. His previous album Marathon was a focused song-cycle containing deep, often moving songs that perhaps suffered from the lack of aural disparity between the individual songs comprising that recording. No such worry with Love Calling, a mature, substantial, and certainly impactful album with each of the album’s eleven songs standing as sentinels of power, creating a formidable production. With more in common with his contemporaries—including Kevin Welch, Jimmy LaFave, and collaborator Radney Foster—than the previous generation of Texas legends—Guy Clark, Townes Van Zandt, and even Steve Earle —Smith’s songcraft alternates between universal first-person reflections on hopes, dreams, and failings and personal wonder at the magic contained within our lives, homes, and world. Foster and Smith co-wrote four of the songs, including the emotionally charged “Angel Flight,” a song honoring the volunteer pilots who fly home the bodies of fallen comrades, which initially appeared on Foster’s Revival album of 2009. With such heavy inspiration, in the hands of lesser writers and singers, the performance could be hackneyed and overwrought. Leading off Love Calling, “Angel Flight” is instead honest and true, a revelation of the devotion and commitment we possess when at our best. In a different time, “Reason to Live” and “Better Now” (another Foster co-write) would be played on commercial country radio. “Medicine Wheel” is an impressively executed number, propelled by mandolin from co-producer Jon Randall Stewart, and here Smith’s voice (to provide perspective) reminds one of Kieran Kane’s: restrained but pure; elsewhere, “Favorite Way” calls forth Stephen Fearing’s unhurried and passionately poetic approach to singing. Nashville studio A-listers serve as Smith’s band, including the likes of Michael Rhodes and Byron House (bass), Pat Bergeson (guitars), John Jarvis (keyboards), and Dan Dugmore (pedal steel), as well as Stewart on vocals. Jessi Alexander and Shawn Colvin each provide substantive vocal harmony to a single track. No filler here with the haunting “I Smell Smoke” and the dark inner conflict of “Baltimore” late in the set standing equal to the especially powerful, front-loaded songs. Bonuses of “I Say a Little Prayer” and a second performance of the titl
