Description

No, this is not the soundtrack to one of those awesome 50's sci-fi flicks about the perils of nuclear war.This
record is a fantastic collection of country covers. But don't think
that Robbie will expose you to the vast and rich heritage of country
music through no-brainers like Hank, Buck, Haggard or Jones. No, we'll
leave that rather shallow reading of country's history to a thousand
numb-nut other bands who toss in an oldie in between their Garth
tributes.Rather, Robbie presents the true unsung heroes of
country music--the ones who lurk in the dark alleys and dusty attics
and long forgotten hit parades. Tracks written by Jimmy Arnold, Frankie Miller, Wynn Stewart, Jean Shepard, and Hylo Brown
represent the dark, the tragic and, of course, the humor that's so
painfully missing from today's country music, but nonetheless make up
an important part of its history. Of course in the end the album is all
Robbie, and he's at his best here.(From Bloodshot Records)
