All in Good Time is the debut album of American
country music artist
Marcus Hummon. Released in late 1995 on
Columbia Records Nashville, it produced one chart hit for him on the Billboard country charts in "God's Country, USA", which peaked at number 73.
Content
Three of this album's tracks were later recorded by other artists: "Honky Tonk Mona Lisa" was recorded in 1995 by
Doug Stone on his 1995 album Faith in Me, Faith in You, and by
Neal McCoy on his 2003 album The Luckiest Man in the World. "Bless the Broken Road" was originally recorded by
Nitty Gritty Dirt Band on their 1994 album Acoustic, and Hummon's version features a backing vocal from band member Jeff Hanna.[1] This song was later recorded by
Melodie Crittenden (1998),
Geoff Moore,
Sons of the Desert (both 1999),
Rascal Flatts (2004), and
Selah (2005); Crittenden, Rascal Flatts, and Selah all released their versions as singles. "One of These Days" was later recorded by
Tim McGraw for his 1997 album Everywhere, from which it was released as a single.
Critical reception
Michael McCall, in his review for New Country magazine, gave the album three stars out of five. McCall said that the album did not have a traditionally country sound but had mostly strong lyrics and "extravagantly musical" arrangements. His review also cited "Bless the Broken Road" as a standout track, but called "God's Country, USA" the album's "major clunker."[2]
