Free Music Review: A VOICE RAISED IN DISAGREEMENT
Hit: 2 Stars
If you like overblown cliched traditional country you're gonna love this album. A truism in Nashville is that the biggest stars get first pick of the best songs. The other side of that coin is that second tier artists like Clay Walker get the second rate material that has been picked over and rejected by bigger stars than he. There is nothing here that isn't a pale imitation of the hits and styles of others like George Strait and Alan Jackson, certainly nothing quality enough to go Top 10 in a medium dominated by more popular male vocalists and hotshot newcomers. The vocals are over the top with no restraint, bathing us with the bathos of the sappy "I'm poor but I got love and so I'm rich" and the "there are millions like me" cliches of these songs. "Fore She Was Mama," opens the CD and has been a minor hit, but is essentially an interesting premise that needed more time to become a great song. And it is the best song on the set. The need for a nearly note by note remake of "Before The Next Teardrop Falls" is questionable - especially when you bring aboard the originator, the recently departed Freddy Fender whose passionate vocal just highlights what a pale copycat version Clay has provided us.
I spent most of my listening time on this CD wondering when something original would peak my interest but it (mercifully) ended before that happened. Traditional is not the equivalent of cliched. Perhaps my biggest mistake was listening to Clint Black's latest directly after the Clay Walker which did nothing more than point out how Clint does traditional right and why Clay was never a bigger star.
