Dwight Yoakam's style is so seamless, his taste so sterling, that his recent music is just this side of boring. Tomorrow's Sounds Today's sound, grittier and dustier than '98's poppish A Long Way Home, masks the album's core blandness; too much of the material is just plain forgettable. Yoakam's one wild card remains the insanely inventive picking of producer-lead guitarist Pete Anderson, whose exhilarating solo on ''A Place to Cry'' is the album's high point. C+
