The Memphis Flyer sez: Harlan T. Bobo became an instant icon in his corner of the local music scene with his lovelorn 2004 debut Too Much Love. To his credit, Bobo declined to offer up Too Much Love 2 with this follow-up, which instead investigates the roots and limitations of the romantic messiness that made his debut so popular. And, over time, I’ve found I’m Your Man to be smarter, funnier, and braver (especially on “Baptist Memorial,” “Pragmatic Woman,” and “So Bad”) than the local masterpiece-by-acclamation that it followed.
