Shooter Jennings
Put The O Back In Country
The title track describes Shooter's brand of country as "a little country and a little rock and roll/a little neil young and a little george jones/a little merle haggard and a little bit of the stones/a little bit of cash and a whole lotta waylon." I think that's a pretty fitting description actually, but if you want to just call it Outlaw Country, that's probably easier. The main point of this cd is to not be radio country, at least by today's standard. The irony here is that the title track sounds the most like radio country out of anything here. Aside from a case of title-trackitus, I really enjoy this album. They do a great job of making a solid country cd with some nice rock guitar here and there. Every track is definately solid enough to stand on it's own, but my favorites are 4th of July (the single, I think), Sweet Savannah, Manifesto No. 1, and the hidden track My Song for You (which is basically why I bought this cd in the first place). If you're thinking about buying this (Tan), I really can't think of any reason not to, especially since it's only $9 at Target.
Alright, there ya go. Now that I've completely changed your life with the best review ever written, The OC is calling me. Later gators.
god knows it's hard to let someone new in
