| | Tim Wilson Mr. Wilson Explains America CD (2009)
Closer To Thee: Faith
$10.15
Despite what the title says, he doesn't, but that's easy to forgive since MR. WILSON EXPLAINS AMERICA is country comedian Tim Wilson at his finest, grumping and griping about the state of the world and sticking to his definition of America no matter what the news. Bad news is that the weakest cut is up front with "Ya'll Better Get Your Guitars Back Out" declaring that rocking-out will help rescue the country from the dreadful 2009 economy. Wilson's many music industry friends will get a kick out of it but it's the rest of the album that will satisfy Johnny and Josie Lunchpail as it bounces between funny songs most fans have already heard on the BOB & TOM RADIO SHOW, and live standup that's casual, loose, brash, and charmingly home-spun. It's not just the refusal to upgrade that makes Wilson such a funny stick-in-the-mud but his allegiance to yesteryear as he berates an audience member for not knowing about Faron Young. It's the songs that push the album over the top as "Jetpack" wonders what happened to yesterday's idea of the future while "Lotion" addresses loneliness. Any given country singer could have a jukebox hit with the well-written "What Gill's Still Drinking About" ("I'd kinda like to go out/With what Gill's still drinking about") and the closing "Booty Man" is welcome since most missed the great Barry White styled-cut when it first appeared on Wilson's bizarre concept album from 2003, SUPER BAD SOUNDS OF THE 70'S. Here his strange formula of rustic values and left-field ideas has been perfected, making MR. WILSON EXPLAINS AMERICA a great introduction to this country-fried curmudgeon.

OFFERINGS was nominated for the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Rock Gospel Album.
Some Christian rock bands have a spiritual base to their music, but they bury it amid the trappings of contemporary pop to such an extent that the message is lost. Third Day manages to keep its Christian-centered themes at the forefront without sacrificing any of its rock credibility.
A good example is the opening "King of Glory," which sings the praises of "the prince of Peace" in no uncertain terms, but whose gently insistent rhythms and jangly guitars would sound perfectly at home on the DAWSON'S CREEK soundtrack. "Your Love Oh Lord" expands the group's earthy, guitar-rock aesthetic by adding some syncopated, programmed-sounding rhythms. "Saved" is a frenetic, piano-driven tune whose collision of gospel and rock suggests a less mannered Black Crowes. Throughout this album, Third Day makes it plain that it intends to stay true to both sides of the duality implied in the term "Christian Rock."

| | Johnny Yankoviak It's Been Six Weeks CD (2002)
Closer To Thee: Faith
$7.39
Written six weeks after Sept. 11th, 2001, the song is partly about those events, and partly about overcoming loss in general. Originally benefiting 9/11, now the proceeds are going The American Red Cross Disaster Relief Effort. Johnny Yankoviak, a lifelong musician, has been performing since the age of 7. He is a singer, songwriter, producer, drummer, percussionist, bass and sax player. For the past 2 years, he has been promoting his album "long time coming" all over Virginia, and other Mid-Atlantic States. Johnny's lyrics are down to earth, and straight to the heart, while his music is a mixture of yesterday and today. Often compared to Billy Joel, Bob Dylan, and Train, he is an award winning songwriter of great depth. While a lot of music today is often lacking in emotion, Johnny's is anything but. He is a throwback to simplier times, with his thoughtful ...
