| | Hank Williams, Jr Major Moves CD Hank Williams, Jr Discography of CDs
 (3 Customer Reviews)
MAJOR MOVES is one of Hank Williams, Jr.'s rowdiest, and most proudly politically incorrect albums. The centerpiece is "The Blues Medley," a montage of three Lightning Hopkins classics featuring guest performances by Ray Charles on piano, John Lee Hooker on vocals, and the Allman Brothers' Dickie Betts on slide guitar.
Other highlights include "Attitude Adjustment," in which Hank regales listeners with stories about taking out a hated brother-in-law with a tire iron, and hitting his girlfriend in the head. "Mr. Lincoln" is a conversation with the Great Emancipator, inspired by headlines in the Nashville newspapers, in which Hank assures us that Honest Abe would have been opposed to gun control, while "Video Blues," finds Hank taken aback by then-new VCR technology and XXX-rated movies.
This is part of Curb's Bocephus series.

| | Toby Keith Honkytonk University CD (2005)
Major Moves album
$12.39
After Toby Keith achieved household-name status with two chart-topping albums full of defiant songs and right-wing politics, listeners may have expected more of the same. With 2005's HONKYTONK UNIVERSITY, however, Keith matches his outlaw aspirations to a set of tunes that remind his audience that he is a country singer first and a media icon second.
The opening "Honkytonk U" is an autobiographical tune that sounds like an outtake from Waylon Jennings's HONKY TONK HEROES, complete with phase-shifted guitar and a four-in-the-morning vocal delivery. Many of the other tunes here have a 1970s vibe as well, but with a poppier slant; the smooth melody of "Knock Yourself Out" recalls Ronnie Milsap, while the breezy feel of "Big Blue Note" wouldn't sound out of place on a Jimmy Buffett record. "You Caught Me at a Bad Time" is so sensitive, fans might be hard-pressed to believe this is the same guy who sang "The Taliban Song." Of course, none of these stylistic variations would work if Keith wasn't a top-notch writer with a resonant baritone. Lurking behind the super-stud image is ...

Back Down a Country Road. In the little town of East Bernstadt, in Laurel County, near London, Kentucky, where the oldest of 11 children was born and spent his boyhood days sharing the load with his parents to help raise the family. The rural experience was filled with school days, farm life, and apple growing. It was hard work but still offered it's rewards, most of which was found in the evenings and Sundays. Lonnie Burkhart's passion for music was second to none and started at the age of 3, he learned to sing while he rocked to keep time in a little red rocking chair. He began to play the guitar at the age of 6, with his mother giving the lessons. As his love for music grew, so did the Burkhart family, before his 17th birthday he went to work in a service station in GroveCity, PA., while living with his aunt and uncle, a door of opportunity was opened for his music career. While singing at local clubs and social events, he later returned to Laurel County, Kentucky at the age of 19. It was there he was asked to sing at the local homecoming where he was awarded first prize for his singing talent. He began singing on local radio stations and was asked to perform for the Cas Walker Farmand Home Hour Show, at the same time Dolly Parton began her singing career there, however, ...
