Free Music Notes for Lovesick Broke & Driftin'
Free Music Review: Need to review C&W
Hit: 5 Stars
I want to be clear that I absolutely hate country music. I am one of those that likes Johnny Cash, Roger Miller, Patsy Cline, and of course Hank Williams Sr. But the stuff in between then and now pretty much just annoys me. So when a trusted friend told me I had to hear Hank Williams III I was a little put off. He came over and put on Lovesick, Broke & Driftin' and I was amazed. No disrespect to anyone but it seems talent skipped a generation in that family. He has everything his grandfather has. It gives me chills how much he both looks like him and sounds like him and has his style (but not copied). I say run don't walk and buy this cd. I do not care what kind of music you like (I generally only listen to pre-85 hardcore punk) this will hook you. So stop reading this and buy it immediately!!!
Lovesick Broke & Driftin' Poster
"Lord, honey, you're a ghost," Minnie Pearl allegedly told Hank Williams III after their first meeting. It's a natural reaction to the skinny singer with the sunken cheekbones and, especially, the pinched nasal vocal--so reminiscent of his famous grandfather's catch-and-moan delivery. Hank III's debut, Risin' Outlaw, made that clear, but now his follow-up carves it on the wall, vocally, melodically, and lyrically. While the third-generation rebel strives mightily to find his own sound by wedding the spooky, old-style country blues and dark themes of his grandfather (Hank Sr.) to the Southern rock and boogie of his dad (Hank Jr.), at times he's guilty of trying too hard to buck Nashville ("Trashville") and re-create the misery of the Williams family tradition. Song after song packs danger and despair between the lines, in drinking to kill the pain, in wallowing in depression, in walking the "low road" of life. That said, III knows how to conjure a gutbucket rhythm ("7 Months and 39 Days") as well as a mournful tearjerker ("5 Shots of Whiskey"), and his touring band keeps things spare, raw, and honkin'. Not everything comes together, but there's no doubting this is a fascinating snapshot of a magical performer struggling to make his own legend. --Alanna NashSong after song packs danger and despair between the lines, in drinking to kill the pain, in wallowing in depression, in walking the 'low road' of life.
