The Convincer is a welcome return from Nick Lowe. Perhaps best known for his late-70s work with Brinsley Schwarz such as "(What's So Funny 'Bout) Peace, Love and Understanding" and as one of the more raffish denizens of the pub-rock scene, Nick Lowe is a long-established purveyor and distiller of an adult blend of country, R&B and MOR. Though The Convincer features covers of Johnny Rivers' "Poor Side of Town" and the ballad "Only a Fool Breaks His Own Heart", this is all self-penned, continuing in the vein of 1998's Dig My Mood. On the opener "Homewrecker", with its broody and distant roll of slide guitar, Lowe comes on like a cuckolded Elvis. "Cupid Must Be Angry", meanwhile, melds epic MOR with raggedly glorious country and western. "Lately I've Let Things Slide" is also excellent, a vivid study of a man gone to seed, searching his laundry basket for the cleanest shirt and typical of The Convincer--lonesome melancholia tempered by a sly and knowingly intelligent lyrical sensibility. --David Stubbs
