Junior Gets Just As Wild As He Wants To Be...

03/12/1999

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I must take exception to the reviews complaining about Junior breaking away from "what he does best". What he does best is combine a fistful of traditional guitar/music styles in a most non-traditional way. His originality is such that he even had to invent the Guit-Steel to perform this soaring, poignant, blistering brew of licks in real time. It is an amazing thing to behold in a live performance.Although Junior has a fine sense of humor in his songs, his "short, concise & humorous" tunes are my least favorite. In fact, I would venture to say that he uses these vehicles to get himself in the door of recording companies & into the tighter-than-Dwight's-jeans confines of modern country radio.I say let the man do his thing & let us sit back & enjoy his genius. By the way, I would have paid $15.00 for "Stupid Blues" alone. Ever since I saw him perform it live, I knew I had to have it."

Junior did a fine job!

"I understand that this CD encompasses more musical styles than previous Junior Brown CDs, but that's the joy of listening to Junior. He is musically diverse, inventive, original, and hugely talented. Nobody does Texas honky-tonk music this well these days. And as for the rest of the songs, nobody even comes close. This is actually my favorite Junior Brown CD, and yes, I have seen him live as well. If you truly are a music lover and can appreciate innovation and different types and styles of music, then you shouldn't have any problem with this CD. Junior's love for the same is apparent."

A surprising combination of good old boy and rock

"Picture a businesswoman in a record store with headphones on smiling and that's the image of me listening to my first Junior Brown CD, Long Walk Back. Country is not my favorite category usually, but I am partial to old time country and this fits the bill, with a unique twist. I love his voice and listening to the music reminded me of my dad's Bob Wills records. This is a great addition to any eclectic collection."

I don't care much for "new" country but this is different.

"When it comes to "country" music I am far more likely to listen to Hank Williams Sr. or Patsy Cline than any of the current chart toppers whom I won't name here. I stumbled across Junior Brown by accident listening to an eclectic program on NPR, the song was "My Wife Think's You're Dead". I loved the song, and within a few days owned every Junior Brown album. It's hard to describe a country picker who shows more influence from Jimi Hendrix than Roy Clark. Long Walk Back is my favorite of his albums, although it's a tough choice. The title track is a traditional sounding number aided by Junior's clear booming baritone. A voice somewhere between Hoyt Axton and the Big Bopper, a refreshing change of pace from the strangling sound of false tenors. His voice works better on hot numbers than on ballads but he holds his own on the slow songs. "Rock-A-Hula Baby" is a fun rockabilly number, "Lookin' For Love" has a 50's rock & roll sound. "Freedom Machine" and "I'm All Fired Up" have that boogie-country sound similar to the classic "Highway Patrol". This album also features an instrumental, "Peelin' Taters" which the title says it all, I think. The album ends with "Stupid Blues", a nearly 9-minute run which is anything but stupid where Junior runs the whole cycle on the guit-steel and ends with a boogie flurry. I highly recommend this album or "Guit With It" as "Guit Aquanted" albums for Junior Brown."
