Livin' Or Dyin' saw Jack team with the fine production team of Twang Trust- the country/rock icon Steve Earle and Ray Kennedy. Jack was joined by many great musicians on the record, including the classic duet, Picture On My Wall, with Jerry Jeff Walker, and Dallas- a duet with producer Steve Earle.

Below is a review of Livin' or Dyin' from AMG (allmusicguide.com):

Country-rock chock full of blue-collar charm, Livin' or Dyin' is Jack Ingram's take on life after years of being in the road. While he covers Guy Clark's "Rite Ballou" and Jimmie Dale Gilmore's "Dallas," he makes them both sound like originals. Full of rockabilly guitar licks, Ingram songwriting shows that he has done his lessons and is now ready to graduate. "Imitation of Love" even comes across as an honest-to-goodness pop tune. Livin' or Dyin' is a great statement from one of country-rock's finest rising stars. ‹ James Chrispell
