No More Looking over My Shoulder is American country music artist Travis Tritt's sixth album, released on Warner Bros. Records in 1998. It was the last album that he recorded with the record company before being released from his contract. The title track, "If I Lost You" and "Start The Car" were released as singles, although the latter became the first single of his career to miss Top 40 on the country charts.

Content

The album's title track was co-written by Michael Peterson, who also recorded it on his 2004 album Modern Man. Peterson contributes a backing vocal to Tritt's version.^[1]

Critical reception

Michael Gallucci of Allmusic gave the album two-and-a-half stars out of five, criticizing Tritt's Southern rock influences by saying that it made the album sound "conspicuously way out of time." He thought that "If I Lost You" was the most country-influenced song and strongest track.^[2]
