Savoy Brown Hellbound Train Songs Hellbound Train Music Review Average Rating: (3.6 out of 5 stars)   List All Reviews Disappointed
I graduated high school in the early 70 and had fond memories of bands like canned heat and Spooky Tooth, and Seagal-Schwall Blues, and the like. But when I listened to this I was disappointed. I was expecting full-tilt boogie and heard ... elevator music

 The LP was great, but this CD sounds like crap
Hellbound Train was one of savoy Brown's great ones, had the LP for years and loved it. But this CD release sounds awful, bassy, muddy, lacks clarity; this is not the way I remember the album.

 Pure R & B
I originally purchased this on an 8 Track in 1972. It's a good solid R & B album that needs to be played in it's entirety to be fully appreciated. I love the ending of the title cut. I saw them play this back in the day. The title tune was the highlight of the concert.

While the title track is the album's best-known song, SABBATH BLOODY SABBATH proved to be another in a long line of 100% filler-free records from Ozzy and co. Highlights included the creepy "Who Are You?," plus the Tony Iommi riff-mongers "A National Acrobat," "Killing Yourself to Live," and "Sabra Cadabra," a song that Metallica would cover on its 1998 release GARAGE INC. You'll also find one of Sabbath's most haunting yet serene instrumentals, "Fluff," as well ...

Kind of BlueCuttin' Grass Ain't Afraid to Give Appalachian Bluegrass a Tint of BaltimorePickin' And Grinnin': Cuttin' Grass updates bluegrass' country roots for the 21st century.Cuttin' Grass Musician page Baltimore City PaperBluegrass guitarist Jeff Hinson realizes he's a sore thumb in the mid-Atlantic music landscape. Singing and picking with his local ensemble, Cuttin' Grass, he knows that bluegrass isn't native to Baltimore, but he can't deny his roots. "I'm a hillbilly," he says. "But you can't make any money just living as a hillbilly. So I'm a hillbilly locked in the city."Hinson has figured out how to market his hillbillyness, though. Onstage with Cuttin' Grass, he performs as "Jeff-ro." And he and band mate Tim Mitchell appeared as hillbillies in a local TV ad for Scott Donahoo's Foreign Motors car dealership. Just don't assume Cuttin' Grass is the musical equivalent of Jeff Foxworthy comedy, a blue-collar shtick built around an air of authenticity. The quartet's recently released and self-produced debut, Out Standing in Their Field, reveals a bluegrass band that acknowledges its Appalachian roots while defining the form for itself. It's a sound the group has shaped out of prolific performances and outlined through its original songs, the result of taking bluegrass seriously but not trapping its sound in time.Bluegrass' presence in Baltimore is a bit peculiar, but not inconsistent. Baltimore became home to West Virginia transplants looking for a safer career than coal mining circa World War II, and the city's shipyards and steel mills enticed folk with promises of plentiful industrial employment. And with their migration came their culture. Remnants of this wave are found in Ellicott City's live-music venue Friendly Inn and Catonsville's Appalachian Bluegrass music shop.Cuttin' Grass essentially came out of Appalachian Bluegrass, where Hinson sells musical instruments and banjoist Mitchell gave lessons in three-finger (known as "Scruggs style," after banjo legend Carl Scruggs) banjo picking. But at first the band was all talk. "[Mitchell] and I spent a couple years running around going to bars and talking about forming a band," Hinson says.The band started to gel when it landed mandolin player Charles Roe two years back. Roe had started as a guitar instructor at Appalachian Bluegrass and developed an interest in the mandolin. Shortly after Roe's recruitment, Hinson met bassist Billy Monroe at the Friendly Inn. ("While another group was playing, Billy was sitting there just charting out the bluegrass they were playing," Hinson says.) Hinson asked Monroe to sit in with them, and with that Cuttin' Grass was born.And since the members of Cuttin' Grass come to bluegrass from all different angles, the group has developed a unique formula for both redefining standards and writing original tunes, one that honors the folksy tradition of singing about the world around them. Rather than belting out the Stanley Brothers' "I'll Meet You in Church Sunday Morning," as so many contemporary bluegrass bands do, Cuttin' Grass covers ZZ Top's "Sharp Dressed Man." Cuttin' Grass prefers to play secular traditionals like "Big Bug in My Beer" over sacred standards such as the Carter Family's "Keep on the Firing Line."Secular songs are simply more representative ...
