Free Music Review: For those of you longing for staunch traditionalism...
Hit: 5 Stars

Nobody but nobody nowadays does traditional country better than Junior Brown. You can't even call his music "contemporary traditionalism" (i.e., Alan Jackson, George Strait, etc.). Brown's music harks back to the day of Hank Williams, Ernest Tubb (his biggest influence, immortalized in "My Baby Don't Dance to Nothin' But Ernest Tubb), and Jimmie Rogers. Listen to "Too Many Nights in a Roadhouse" and try NOT to think of the guys who started this whole thing we call "country music." All of it delivered in Brown's mellow baritone.

They say Chet Atkins was the kind of guitar player who either made you wanna play guitar or quit playing. Brown is that type of guitarist as well. His patented "guit-steel" instrument is inspired and unmistakable (it came to him in a dream, he once said), and his playing will raise the hairs on the back of your neck. Even people with absolutely no interest in instrumentals will be floored by "Sugar Foot Rag" (unfortunately, the only instrumental on here). And the hillbilly/blues licks of "Freeborn Man" will make you swoon. And though few of these songs are deep and meaningful (Brown isn't that kind of artist), there's a lot of honesty and wit. "My Wife Thinks You're Dead" is absolutely hilarious, delivered in its stoic manner, and "Joe the Singing Janitor" roots for the underdogs and those behind the scenes ("I can't carry a tune in a bucket/But I carry that bucket with pride").

Having spent most of his career flying underneath radio's radar (despite the fact that "Highway Patrol" remains a radio staple to this day), Junior Brown isn't about to give in. He continues to make country music as honest and as traditional as electric instruments allow. His voice in unmistakable, his picking is unbelievable, and his style is irrisistable. GREATEST HITS may not be the best anthology of his music you could purchase, but it's Junior Brown, so who's complaining?
