"John Michael Montgomery's "Home To You" filled the mail box
in its first SPI week. "The best thing he's had out in over a
year," says Lance Houston at WTXT. "Another home run for JMM,"
says D.C. Cavender at WBYB. WMIL's Kerry Wolfe adds, "This is
what he does best." Stephen Giuttari at KKBQ says, "One of the top
three or four albums of 1999 without a doubt. This is the first of many
great songs from the album. "The day this came in I played it once during my
shift," says Ryan Dobry-Hunt at WTCM. "The next day, I had a
couple requests for it for wedding anniversaries-amazing! (Semi-pun
intended.)" KSOP's Debby Turpin calls it, "The best from JMM in a
while." Brian Jennings at KZKX says, "John Michael with a killer
ballad. 'Bout time." Thompson adds, "This is what a late '90s
country record should sound like." Holiday says, "One of his best
ballads in years. 'Home To You' is a home run." Giuttari sums,
"Best compilation of songs he's ever had on one album. This is the
first of many top fives."
