In 2006, punk-pop's premier cover band, Me First & the Gimme Gimmes, wrangled up lively renditions of their favorite country tunes. On this 12-track collection, the lighthearted supergroup (which includes members of NOFX, Foo Fighters, and Lagwagon) runs through a well-chosen and revved-up set that features tunes by artists ranging from Hank Williams ( "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry") to the Dixie Chicks (the murderous "Goodbye Earl"). Good fun for cowboys and cowgirls wearing all variety of boots--combat, cowboy, or otherwise.

Love Their Country album
$8.49 Ultradiscs are mastered from the original master tapes using Mobile Fidelity's proprietary mastering technique, then plated with 24-karat gold and housed in a stress-resistant lift-lock jewel box.
"You Can't Lose What You Ain't Never Had" and "The Same Thing" did not appear on the original version of FOLK SINGER. They were recorded at a separate session in April 1964, three months after FOLK SINGER was released.
The title and cover photo of this 1963 recording were an attempt to cash in on the burgeoning American folk revival, but this is pure acoustic blues. Muddy began his career as a Robert Johnson-style solo acoustic performer, and the tunes on FOLK SINGER hark back to those days. He's accompanied sparsely by Willie Dixon, drummer Clifton James and a young Buddy Guy, who provide a stark, deliberate backdrop for Muddy's rich vocal and expressive bottleneck guitar work. The richness of Muddy's baritone is showcased effectively here, with more room than usual for his voice to resonate.
The low-key setting allows Muddy to explore a fuller dynamic range as well. From the romantic yearning of "Long Distance Call" to the fatalism of the chain gang song "My Captain," Muddy's voice expresses entire worlds of emotion with only subtle dynamic changes. On FOLK SINGER's more downhearted cuts, there's a doomy, ominous quality that rivals the deepest ...

| | Philipp Fankhauser Talk To Me CD (2004)
Love Their Country music CDs
$13.05 Talk To Me is the title of the latest album from Philipp Fankhauser, the highly regarded blues artist based in Thun, Switzerland, and his first for Memphis International Records. Fankhauser is well known to European audiences but he is also familiar to North Americans as a result of his role as guest vocalist with the band of the late blues great Johnny "Clyde" Copeland. While the bulk of Talk To Me is comprised of l Fankhauser originals it does include two Johnny Copeland compositions and Shemekia Copeland, Johnny's daughter and a renowned star in her own right, penned the liner notes. "Philipp will always be very special to the Copeland family; his music is special for just about everyone," she wrote.The album includes a version of "Members Only," a song that was an R&B hit for Bobby Bland in the 1980s and produced for Fankhauser by Dennis Walker (Robert Cray, B.B. King, Maria Muldaur) with an appearance by the Memphis Horns. Bobby Bland finally met Fankhauser in the '90s and expressed great admiration for the Swissman's interpretation of one of his signature songs.Downbeat's review of Talk To Me noted "Fankhauser doesn't sound the least bit like a visitor from Switzerland that unrealistically fancies himself a blues singer. He displays empathy for Johnny Copeland songs, and he dramatizes soul-blues originals without over extending his voice or wearing out his welcome will too strong a reverential tone."Despite the fact that he was ...
| | Me First & The Gimme Gimmes Ruin Jonny's Bar Mitzvah CD (2004)
Love Their Country songs
$8.65 Me First and the Gimme Gimmes: Dave Raun, Fat Mike, Max Huber, Warren Fitzgerald , Spike Slawson.
On their 2004 release, RUIN JONNY'S BAR MITZVAH, punk-rock supergroup/cover band Me First & the Gimme Gimmes conspire to do just that with their trademark caffeinated versions of 13 great bar mitzvah band hits (and a blessing). For no more than the retail price of a full-length disc, you'll be hearing their sensitive tribute to weekend guitar-store heroes everywhere, "Stairway to Heaven," along with the inspirationally misplaced "Auld Lang Syne," and an unnaturally accelerated version of the Carpenters' "Superstar." But wait--there's more! You'll thrill to Swingin' Utters' bassist and Gimmes vocalist Spike Slawson's ...
