John Anderson was just coming off his monster hit "Swingin'" when this set came out in 1983, perhaps giving him the courage to record a couple of bluesy rock & roll tunes, although most of the material is cut from the hardcore cloth Anderson had become famous for. "Black Sheep" is a growling rocker about hard luck and hard times written by Hollywood writer Danny Darst and director Robert Altman, who knew a thing or two about Nashville. It was a number one single. "Haunted House" is a novelty hit that gets trotted out every Halloween. Anderson's version is as much honky tonk as rock, with snappy solos from Mike Jordan's piano and Vern Pilder's twangy guitar. "Let Somebody Else Drive" became a signature tune for Mothers Against Drunk Driving, but Anderson's growling vocal implies more than a passing knowledge of boozy good times. Anderson's own "Things Ain't Been the Same Around the Farm" sounds like the boy moved a rockin' R&B band into the spread after baby ...

John Anderson songs
$10.45
John Anderson probably knew he was leaving Warner Bros. when he cut Countrified, which is not to say he was coasting when he recorded it. He produced the set with Jim Ed Norman and cut several tunes with his touring band. It may be the most country album he made for Warner since his first albums, but it was too little, too late. "Countrified" is a string of country songwriting clichés, somewhat redeemed by Anderson's over the top vocals, "Wife's Little Pleasures" is better, a song about a drunk making amends for his sins by paying a punishing alimony ...

John Anderson album
$10.59
John Anderson's third album for Warner Brothers made him a star and helped launch what critics called the neo-traditionalist movement, a return to pared-down fiddle, banjo, and steel guitar arrangements and songs about hard times and hard luck. The players here are all Nashville session heavies, doing what they do best, while Anderson's vocals are as country as they come, despite the fact that he grew up playing rock & roll in Apopka, FL. The album was mostly downtempo, with the kind of sad ballads that country music lovers adore and rockers make fun of. Hits on the album include the title track, a nostalgic ballad about a down-on-his-luck guy returning home, given extra gravitas by Anderson's expressive growl, and "Would You Catch a Falling Star," another tearjerker about a country singer on the way down, hitting up a female fan for a place to stay. Anderson contributes three strong co-writes. "I Danced with the San Antone Rose" is ...

People flipped out when John Anderson opened his seventh album with a countrified version of the Valentinos' (led by Bobby Womack) R&B hit "It's All Over Now," familiar to most because the Rolling Stones covered it on 12 X 5. The there a couple of killer tunes in this collection, both rockers and country ballads, but the album didn't crack the Top Ten and two years later Warner dropped him. The best country tune here is "Down in Tennessee" by Wayland Holyfield, famous for many Don Williams hits. The title is a pun, as in "she's up in New York and I'm down in Tennessee," the kind of witty wordplay that used to be a mainstay of Nashville songwriters. Anderson gives the lyric an appropriately downhearted reading. "Till I Get Used to the Pain," "Even a Fool Would Let Go," and Anderson's ...

John Anderson CD music
$12.19
There are many who can claim that since Kris Kristofferson never had much of a singer's voice, his songs were always better served by someone else's interpretation. This view is dead wrong, however. While Kristofferson may not possess a golden throat, that doesn't mean he isn't a great singer. He is. No one sings his material -- with the possible exception of Willie Nelson's interpretation of "Help Me Make It Through the Night" and Janis Joplin's "Me & Bobby McGee" -- better than he does. (No, Johnny Cash's read of "Sunday Morning Coming Down" wasn't forgotten in the list, and it's a good one, but Kristofferson's is devastating.) Broken Freedom Song features the singer/songwriter in a stark yet romantic setting, accompanied only by guitarist and mandolinist Stephen Bruton and Keith Caper on bass. Both musicians provide backing vocals, and Kristofferson accompanies himself on acoustic guitar and harmonica. He has never been in better voice, and the collection of songs here is stellar. Along with "Darby's Castle," the title track, "Here Comes That Rainbow Again," and "Shandy" are four new songs, such as "The Circle," written after two significant events, the story of the disappeared ones (los Olvidados) in Argentina and the late Iraqi artist Layla Al-Attar, who was killed during the Clinton administration's bombing of Baghdad--the pilots missed the target. Al-Attar's name, and those of her husband and children, were never mentioned in the American press.
Also, "Sky King," a song sung by Vietnam veterans during the war and others later, is a perennial live offeriing by Kristofferson that's never been recorded before; finally "Sandinista" from the excellent Third World Warrior album offers a widely divergent view of the truth about Nicaragua from the U.S. government's. And herein lies the beauty of this recording: It was never planned as a live album and features none of the "hits" except for the title track. It was recorded as a way to find a track for a Bread and Roses Foundation compilation. Broken Freedom Sing a record of love songs and topical protest tomes. But there's no placard-waving here. Kristofferson is a humanist and an intimate performer ...

John Anderson music CDs
$6.69
This is the debut from TXMF artist Record Hop. To hear more from them, buy some other stuffs, and get on board with the upcoming 2008 release, go to txmfrecords.comPareidolia. Ten songs of weirdo indie/punk/fuzzed out desperation that tickle the soft underbelly of your questionable motives with butterfly kisses. Recorded at the Echo Lab in rural Argyle, Texas under the influence of fireworks and freshly baked bread. Crank it up and go think about what you've done.***************ABOUT RECORD HOP*************Soaring, freaked out guitars and an air-tight, frenetic rhythm section...A band pounding out jagged Chicago angles smothered in a New York beautiful racket that could only come from Denton, Texas...Indie Rock attitude with an Arena Rock earache, while the ghosts of all your heartbroken moments videotape you from the corner...Record Hop comes on like an obsessive crush; Of course something about it makes no sense, but it won't let you go just the same.Quality rock n' roll for the discriminating music lover, Record Hop plays the soundtrack to your sexiest nightmares, not your drive to work.***************REVIEWS*************From The Fold Magazine - AUGUST 2004, Issue 004 www.thefoldmagazine.comRecord Hop : Pareidolia Written by Cody Robinson After months of anticipation, the latest release from Record Hop, Pareidolia, landed in my lap last week. I suppose it's only fitting that in my own sweet time I got around to writing this review at the last possible minute. I'll be blunt. I'm a fan of Record Hop; both as a band and as people. After all, in a Kevin Bacon sort-of way, you could credit the birth of "The Fold" to the early efforts of Record Hop bassist Cory Ward and guitarist Scott Porter and their short-lived 'zine "denton Rock city", but more on that in a later issue. Today it's about the music.The directions scribbled on the front of the disk were simple:Band: Record Hop, Title: Pareidolia, Advice: Crank it up, fu.. reviewer. That would be the musical equivalent of Lather, Rinse, Repeat...or CAUTION:Contents Are Hot. It goes without saying, but unfortunately there are always a few people out there that may burn themselves, have insufficiently cleaned hair, or not rock out properly if you just don't walk them through the process.The first track, "B'Day", starts off with an uneasy guitar, dangling like a short but slow burning fuse that sets off what seems to be a nice girl who's had enough. The minute she opens her mouth, singer/guitarist Ashley has you. I hear every word, but somehow I have to listen again to get it. There's an air of mystery in the emotion, and just when you start to understand it all the melody carries you away.Every track is well worth mention, but in the interest of time and space,I'll give you the rundown of my three favorites:Track 2, "First National Skank": I have to admit I've heard this one live many times before, but on disk it's twice as nice. The angular guitar riffs are served up Chicago style, battling it out for the center of the stereo spread but nicely tied together by the steady beats of John on the drums. Track 6, "Last Second": This one makes me think of a dream, where I'm driving down some dark and spacey road with a priest in the seat next to me listening to all of my sins, swaying his head to the music. There would ...
| | Daniel Smith American Made CD (2005)
John Anderson songs
$11.39
Daniel Smith Bio Daniel Smith first turned heads in a big way with the 2005 release of American Made, his debut album for Parlor Records. The project yielded three chart singles. Now Smith is busy at work on his second album, Revolution, which will be out in May 2009. It has already spawned the party anthem and dance club favorite, “Livin’ The Good Life.” The next single up is “Man Like Me.”            Within Daniel Smith's rugged six-foot-five frame lie the heart of a poet and the warm, sincere and comforting voice of a best friend. Like those of Kris Kristofferson, Smith's lyrics are literate and well-defined meditations on life's uneven surfaces. He wrote or co-wrote every song on American Made and saw the public embrace the singles “I’m Going Home,” “Thank You,” and “What U See Is What U Get.”Everyone who heard the album had his own favorites. Writing about American Made, Los Angeles critic Gian Fiero observed, “The radio friendly tracks, "Right Side Of Love" and "Ain't No Place Like Home," are commercial gems that would be welcomed additions to any country music playlist, but songs like "Thank You," which conveys gratitude to the soldiers who are fighting in the war, and my personal favorite, "True Measure Of A Man," add depth and dimension to a roster of songs that will appeal to music fans and industry professionals alike.”Not long after “Thank You” was released, the Thank You Foundation in Cincinnati, a military support group, sought Smith’s permission—which he gladly gave—to use the song as its official theme. Smith has since played a number of shows to raise funds and visibility for the organization.Smith grew up in Taylor Mill, Kentucky, a small town just across the Ohio River from Cincinnati. Although Cincinnati has long been a center of country and bluegrass music, Smith says his inspiration came from his parents' record collection, which tended to be heavy on albums by Eddy Arnold, Conway Twitty, the Statler Brothers and the gospel-singing Gaithers.Like most boys his age, Smith also developed a strong affinity for rock music. In college, ...
