Nobody's Got It All is the eighteenth studio album by country music artist John Anderson released under the Columbia Records label on March 27, 2001. The album produced the singles "Nobody's Got It All" which peaked at 55 on the country charts and "You Ain't Hurt Nothin' Yet", which peaked at 56. Also included on the album was a cover of Bruce Springsteen's 1982 song Atlantic City from his album Nebraska.
According to Allmusic, Anderson's vocals are best utilized in the album on "the ballads, which prominently feature steel guitar and fiddle in traditional country style." His voice is described as "vulnerable, slightly wheezy tenor" that is best suited for "slow material." The reviewer states that some of the tracks are "conservative reflections" on life. Anderson's voice is compared by the reviewer to Levon Helm.
The album was produced by Blake Chancey and Paul Worley, who were a popular production team at the end of the 1990s, most notable for their work with the Dixie Chicks.
"It Ain't Easy Being Me" was previously recorded by Chris Knight on his self-titled album. "The Big Revival" was later recorded by Montgomery Gentry on Back When I Knew It All, which was also produced by Chancey. The song was later recorded by Kenny Chesney in 2014 and used as the title track of his album The Big Revival.
