Free Music Review: Todd Snider - His Best Album So Far
Hit: 5 Stars
Personally I think this is Todd's best album so far. Just about every song on here is great and it is just the right mix of country, rock and folk to emphasize Snider's always on the mark lyrics. Todd's original tunes here are some of the cleverest of his career. "Age Like Wine" starts things off with a "maybe" autobiographical look at an "old timer" (in music business terms) still in his 30's. "Tillamook County Jail" is a great story song. "Good News Blues" and "Incarcerated" are cool little tunes. "The Ballad Of The Kingsmen" is an insightful comment on rock n roll and its alleged affects on society. "Iron Mike's Main Man's Last Request" is a hilarious look at Mike Tyson. "Conservative Christian Right Wing Republican Straight White American Males" is about just what the title suggests. "Nashville Sunshine" and "Play A Train Song" are both rocking good time anthems. I really love this album a lot and think it is Snider's high water mark as a recording artist so far. If you are at all into singer songwriters in the tradition of John Prine, Neal Young, Steve Goodman or other that straddle the line between country, folk and rock you owe it to yourself to check this album out. You will not be disappointed. For Snider fans this one is a must own.
East Nashville Skyline Poster
East Nashville lies just across the Cumberland River from the mansions and skyscrapers Music Row built, but for Todd Snider it may as well be in outer space. On his seventh album, he paints a word-drunk, smart-ass, but always affectionate portrait of this gritty neighborhood--the dead-end dives, low-rent bungalows, and musicians barely scraping by--with a freewheeling comedic spirit as true to country as it is to rock & roll. He gives Mike Tyson a chummy hug, flips off the moral majority, fails to decipher "Louie, Louie," and turns an attempted suicide into a bittersweet recognition of human folly. Producer Will Kimbrough keeps the sound loose and tipsy, sometimes whittling back to a single acoustic guitar, which is just right for Snider's funniest, sharpest, and most life-affirming album yet. --Roy KastenCountry Music CDs
