EuroAussie Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 Is unfortunately total crap, Im sorry to say. Really bad country pop. What a shame. Waste of all those Gibsons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smurfbird Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 Glad to hear someone else didn't like it. I sampled a bit at Spotify and was quite horrified with the banal, cliche-ridden tunes and the cookie-cutter pop-country sound. Longmeadow, Massachusetts' favorite son shouldn't be allowed in the studio until he's spent a few years with Hank Williams, Merle Haggard and George Jones records....

Mojorule Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 At-a-boy EA. Here's some real country from the other name in your stable, to make things right. Note that he has a 1950s SJ too. Just think, those very hands have touched your AJ. Don't ever wipe it down! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3QmdzqJ_K9E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't ever wipe it down! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3QmdzqJ_K9E Yeah, good stuff Mojo, lot of class there from Buddy. Makes me wonder why he ever moved on that AJ. However, Im really disappointed by Aarons effort, especially when he's capable of material like this. Surely you cant say this is rubbish. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zvlrwboVr3I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely you cant say this is rubbish. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zvlrwboVr3I No, that's far from rubbish - exactly what I meant the other day about not turning his country stuff off if it came on the radio (yet to hear this new material, though). I'd even say this was a really good song, apart from the opening lyric which goes with the obvious simile (compare the second verse of Leonard Cohen's Suzanne which does something much cleverer with that parable and almost the same words), and the bit about writing a poem if he could. Some of the other lyrics are excellent, so those lines let the side down a bit, and stand out all the more for it. If he'd only rewrite them and resubmit. My own lyrics would be worse, but that's why I'm not a songwriter. Musically very nice, and he controls the sub-grunge buzz-saw aspect of his voice here. Wish he'd do it elsewhere too. Stellar dobro playing to boot. Watching these two kind of makes me want to buy a strap button for the Woody though. I'm not getting any thinner while sitting down to play either.

I wonder if he found the rosewood too much for his voice. It appears to be a real beast. (The AJ, not BM's voice.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
