Free Music Notes for Under the Covers
Free Music Review: Unlistenable
Hit: 1 Stars
I am not a huge Dwight Yoakam fan but I have several of his CD's and enjoy his music and his voice. I ordered this CD when I saw that he covered a few tunes by other artists that I enjoy (Beatles, Rolling Stones etc). I'm guessing that he was in a studio one day and someone suggested he take these familiar tunes and arrange them so no one could possibly recognize or enjoy them. Maybe it was a big joke. Who knows? I wish I could go back in time to that moment before I clicked on "Proceed To Checkout". I would change everything that happened at the next moment. This CD is currently being utilized under the short leg of my pool table. Hey, this is just my opinion. I still listen to my other Yoakam CD's. You want a great "listenable" CD? Buy Levon Helm's "Dirt Farmer".
Under the Covers Poster
A rather mediocre and often puzzling outing for the multitalented Mr. Yoakam. While the idea of Under the Covers--Dwight trying his hand at songs by the likes of the Beatles, Them, the Clash, Roy Orbison, Ray Davies, and the Rolling Stones--sounds good on paper, it's an uneven ride that lacks focus. The Clash's "Train in Vain" works as a hillbilly hayride (with Ralph Stanley on banjo), but Ray Davis' "Tired of Waiting for You" goes nowhere, and the Johnny Horton chestnut "North to Alaska" seems misplaced. Not an essential Yoakam release, but not bad as a curiosity. --S. DudaCountry Music CDs
