Spurred on by George Bush's unofficial adoption of "God Bless the USA" as the new American anthem, Lee Greenwood recorded American Patriot in the midst of the President's (ultimately unsuccessful) re-election campaign in 1992. American Patriot sealed Greenwood's stance as American songteller extraordinaire. Every song on the album is, unsurprisingly, about America, from "The Pledge of Allegiance" and "The Star Spangled Banner" to "God Bless America" and "God Bless the USA." Of course, Woody Guthrie's populist anthem "This Land Is Your Land" takes on a different meaning in this context, but that's not surprising -- American Patriot is a slick, satisfied album designed for the modern-day patriot and conservative, not for dust bowl activists or smugly sophisticated liberals. In other words, if you've been a fan of "God Bless the USA" since its first incarnation in the early '80s, you'll be happy with this full-blown sequel. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine

Big Blue Line is the third album for Lily White and her group. Working together for more than six years gives her group a respectable pedigree and they are finally getting the attention they have worked hard to attract. While the instrumentation is pretty standard for a small group, the sounds they manage to get out of the tools of the trade entice the listener much like the Sirens tempted Ulysses and his crew in the classic The Odyssey. To their credit, White and her confreres don't try to concoct "different" sounds just to show how clever they are. Everything manages to come together to provide more than an hour's worth of absorbing ...
| | Mickey Newbury Harlequin Melodies/Sings His Own CD (2003)
American Patriot songs
$17.75 
It is ironic that the CD release of Mickey Newbury's debut album and initial RCA recordings are the very ones he despised and disowned, yet have better sound than those reissued on his own label. (The reason for this is that the master no longer existed for many of his later records and they were remastered from pristine LPs.) Nonetheless, despite Newbury's own discontent, this album holds up amazingly well. It is easy to hear how Felton Jarvis' production may not have exactly been to his liking in that it was not quite as subtle as his own, and these textures are a bit thinner and less impressionistic, but that can easily be forgiven -- especially considering what else was going on in Nashville in 1968 (there are no reverb or echo chamber effects on his vocals). The CD combines Harlequin Melodies from 1968 with Sings His Own from 1972. Here are several Newbury firsts, whose re-recorded and reinvented versions on later albums -- "Sunshine," "Sweet Memories," and "Good Morning Dear" from Heaven Help the Child -- became definitive takes. There is also the original version of his infamous "Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In)." Also included is a stripped-down, honky tonk version of "How I Love Them Old Songs" and the rocker "Dizzy Lizzy." Most significant is the first version of Newbury's signature medley, "An American Trilogy." There are two tracks here, "Mister Can't You See" and "Weeping Annaleah," co-written with a very young Townes Van Zandt. For a deeper analysis of the music and production techniques ...
