Old Crow Medicine Show - Big Iron World (2006 USA)

Roddus Album Of The Day




Yeeehaaar, Ya'll get on down at the hoedown,ya hear, to this hillbilly, Bluegrass, banjo and fiddle music for the 21st century. With bits of Dylan, Neil Young, songs about God, Drugs, loose Women, up tempo dance numbers mixed with slower country songs, a great mix of tracks to keep you amused. Sometimes these guys are pretty serious but mostly not very serious at all. An enjoyable listen which grew more pleasurable as the songs became more familiar, especially "Bobcat Tracks" with its Led Zep intro and Dylan style singing and "Don't Ride That Horse Home" recalls Neil Young. "James River Blues" is classic Americana and sounds familiar even though it is an OCMS original. Another grower, My rating 3.5/5.
