My Kind of Country
Meandering through every topic and emotion imaginable, this album seems like it has more of Kix and Ronnie’s personal stamp on it than any other album of their career, and for that, it’s also the most varied, yet cohesive set in their catalog. Listening to the songs in order, you get a sense the two were trying to tell their stories, one by one, and succeeded on almost every level.

All Music
Red Dirt Road is a bit of a concept album, with Brooks & Dunn sketching out a nostalgic trip through their past and a tribute to their roots and upbringing. the loose concept gives the album structure and focus, and this, added to the fine songwriting, means that Red Dirt Road is not just one of Brooks & Dunn's most ambitious records, it's also one of their best.

AV Club
He invests every lyric with life and character, and this material gives Dunn and his springy-voiced foil Kix Brooks plenty to work with. When the music stops so that Brooks and Dunn can harmonize on the chorus, the moment is too pure to be sullied by ideological battles over how country music is supposed to sound.

Country Standard Time
Instead of going for their typical high octane rockin' country and ballads, Brooks & Dunn mixed it up with honky tonk, Stones-styled country, blues, gospel and more for probably their most eclectic album ever.
