King Of The Road: The Genius Of Roger Miller(more) »rank: 58235by: Roger Miller
: :Comedy gets no respect. If Merle Haggard sums up the dilemma of the American working class from the hard-bitten perspective of 'Mama Tried' or 'The Bottle Let Me Down,' he's called a blue-collar poet. If Roger Miller captures the same predicament from the warped, comic perspective of 'You Can't Roller Skate in a Buffalo Herd,' he's dismissed as a novelty writer. And yet, a great comic song is just as hard to write as a serious one and sheds just as much light on its subject. Nashville has been home to some gifted comic songwriters over the years--Tom T. Hall, Shel ... |

One More Day(more) »rank: 50115by: Diamond Rio
: :Diamond Rio's first big hit was called 'Meet in the Middle,' but 'caught in the middle' more accurately describes One More Day: they sound trapped between cookie-cutter pop-country material and the irrepressible individuality of their instrumental and vocal personalities. Jimmy Olander's unique guitar style and Gene Johnson's down-home mandolin do their best to fight through NutraSweet tunes like ''Til the Heartache's Gone' and 'The Love of a Woman'; but, like Marty Roe's honest vocals and the group's high-lonesome harmonies, they reside more comfortably in the arms of clever good-time tunes like 'Stuff' and 'That's Just That.' They can also make you ... |

How Big 'a Boy Are Ya?, Vol. 1(more) »rank: 17016by: Roy D. Mercer
: :Roy D. Mercer's shtick involves phoning unsuspecting folks from his roost at Tulsa, Oklahoma, radio station KMOD and blamin' 'em for one ridiculous thing or another. Mercer's accusations are prefaced by wild yarns and followed by demands for a few hundred dollars. Of course, the people he calls aren't so agreeable and that's when Roy threatens to whup some ass. Mercer's marks respond in wildly different ways. The guy on 'Dead Hamster' isn't threatened at all; he can't stop cracking up at Mercer's convoluted tale featuring a stylishly attired, piano-playing hamster. The man at the other end of the line on ... |

America's Song Butchers: The Weird World of Homer & Jethro(more) »rank: 48403by: Homer & Jethro
: :Now this is a vital reissue project. From the '40s to the '60s, guitarist Henry 'Homer' Haynes and mandolinist Kenneth 'Jethro' Burns often put their virtuosity and swing (not to mention those of Chet Atkins, Jerry Reed, and the great Nashville drummer Buddy Harman) into service as deconstructive tools applied to the hits of the day. You might say the duo's parodies struck blows against the straight-faced tyranny of both mainstream pop and 'hillbilly' music; you'll also note that Homer and Jethro seem to be having too much fun to care about such high-flown notions. Still, listen to 'Hart-Brake Motel' and ... |
