Free Music Notes for Wanna Be Your Joe

Free Music Review: A Welcome Surprise
Hit: 5 Stars

I personally never liked "Achy Breaky Heart" and because of that never listened to Billy Ray Cyrus. With that being said, Last June I and my Family attended the CMA in Nasville, TN and got to see and hear Billy Ray Cyrus live and I got to tell you he was great. Ed King from Lynyrd Skynyrd was on lead guitar and it just made it better. My kids watch Hanna Montana on T.V. and went crazy when Billy Ray took the stage, I never picked up that he was on the show!
The above CD is filled with great songs that are performed well. A welcome surprise.
I gave it a chance and Im glad I did!!!

Wanna Be Your Joe Poster

No matter how you feel about the pride of Flatwoods, Kentucky, you've got to give him credit for sheer grit. An embarrassment to Nashville after his Chippendalesish (and hugely popular) line-dancing anthem "Achy Breaky Heart" (1992), the mullet-wearing Billy Ray Cyrus went on to make credible music (1993's mostly ignored It Won't Be the Last) before segueing into acting (Doc, Hannah Montana). Yet on Wanna Be Your Joe, an album he largely wrote or co-wrote, Cyrus doesn't do himself many favors. The quality of writing never reaches the upper tiers, and several of the songs come across as rough demos instead of fully produced cuts. His slim baritone, once gravelly and testosterone-pumped, is dry as a stump, and the hunger and passion that drove his earlier recordings also seems to slumber, whether he's paying tribute to his heroes (Dale Earnhardt, Ronnie Van Zant) or pondering lost loves. Cyrus shows his sense of humor in referencing his former hairstyle ("I Want My Mullet Back," a rootsy rock excursion), and hits all the working-class touchstones (the loving husband/father of the promising title cut, the blue-collar protest of exorbitant fuel costs of "A Pain in the Gas"). But the album never really catches fire until he brings on the guests: George Jones and Loretta Lynn for the down-home "Country Music Has the Blues" and daughter Miley for "Stand." Just as in the plots of his TV series, on Wanna Be Your Joe, friends and family save the day. --Alanna Nash
Everyone knows the name of the colossal single from Billy Ray Cyrus' record-breaking 1992 album "Some Gave All" - the infamous "Achy Breaky Heart" (which also inspired a line dance craze). And since then, Billy Ray has enjoyed great success as not only as a country music star but as a successful songwriter and actor.

In Billy's two decades long career he has achieved: • 3 #1 singles and 6 Top 10 singles in addition to the platinum and gold albums • 2 AMA awards, 1 CMA award • 6 TNN/Music City News awards • 2 MovieGuide Awards (for "Doc") • He STILL holds the record for 17 weeks at #1 on Billboard's Hot 100 Chart for "Some Gave All" (the longest time this was held by a debut artist). • Has been recognized by the Kennedy Center Honors • Received the Bob Hope Congressional Medal of Honor Society Entertainer's Award • Country Radio Broadcaster's Artist Humanitarian Award • Been inducted into the Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) Hall of Fame

As an artist, Billy Ray Cyrus continues to create music that is close to his heart… music that rocks, can touch one's emotions, songs that are reverent and some even satirical, and all styles are evident on his CD debut release on New Door Records, "Wanna Be Your Joe."
