A collection of songs Lovett wrote in the late '70s and early '80s, I Love Everybody continued his move away from country, and it was the first record he had released that didn't expand his audience in some way.

 Rolling Stone : Lovett Welcomes His Friends to the Big Apple
Billed as "An Evening with Lyle Lovett," the shows were for all intents and purposes informal, in-the-round picking sessions at which Lovett simply played host.
Steering clear of his own material in favor of songs by his friends onstage, and hardly ever engaging in the casual stage banter, he often seemed to be holding back.
No doubt inspired by Clark's presence, Lovett himself was significantly livelier the second night, dipping into his own catalogue ("Her First Mistake," "If I Had a Boat") and turning in a lively "Bears" with Fromholz.
