It is record-release day for Lyle Lovett, a Tuesday when his 14th album, "Natural Forces," is being unleashed on the world. Typically, such an occasion becomes the apex of a promotional push, a day loaded with TV appearances, performances and any number of exercises to capitalize on what is, in essence, "opening day" for a recording. For Lovett, multiple Grammy Award-winning songsmith, stylistically innovative bandleader and all-around Texan, the day is something of a breather. A tour with fellow songwriting pal John Hiatt ended two days earlier. In less than a week, he will be back on the road for a month's worth of shows with his Large Band, the brassy Americana army that has been his most visible performance vehicle for the past two decades. That means that although "Natural Forces" introduces the next edition of Lyle Lovett music, Lovett himself is back, briefly, in the only place he has ever called home: Texas.
