Crazy Like Me is the twelfth solo studio album by Billy Burnette, released in 2017 to tie in with his autobiography of the same name. It marked the third occasion he had recorded his father and uncle's song Tear it Up and his first studio recording of the Fleetwood Mac hit Oh Well which he had performed live with the group and again on his solo live album Memphis in Manhattan (2006). Another song recorded here that previously appeared on that album is a cover of his father's song It's Late.
The album saw Burnette working once again with several collaborators he had written with down the years including David Malloy, Dennis Morgan, Deborah Allen, Rafe Van Hoy, Michael Smotherman and Mentor Wiliams as well as his more recent writing partner Shawn Camp.
The final track, Anywhere You Go, featured lyrics from Will Jennings, probably best known for his work with Steve Winwood.
