Jamey Johnson's Guitar Song on vinyl is a pretty impressive package--the first album is black vinyl, the middle is half black, half white, and the third LP is all white vinyl. However, the sound quality is not great, vocals distort and seems overly compressed. Haven't heard the CD version. Classic outlaw songwriting--very wry observations, good hooks, attitude, and twang. He definitely flips the bird to the Nashville establishment.
Am I late to the Zac Brown & Jamey Johnson party?
Having recently discovered a few ‘new to me’ performers, I thought to enter them here and see of these if anyone can suggest other similarly related musicians, song writers, or bands, performing now.
Those I have run across and liked enough to buy a few of their individual CDs are Jamey Johnson “That Lonesome Song”… Zac Brown Band “The Foundation” & “You Get What You Give”… Reina Collins “Austin to Boston” & “Saltwater Soul”.
Each of these are IMHO related and separate. Gems in their own rights. All completely enjoyable and satisfying.
I’m most curious to find out other bands akin to the Zac Brown, ‘roadhouse’ genre, that are as accomplished and as tight a sound as ZBB has to offer…. ZBB is definitely on time and unquestionably professional with their sound and abilities..
Thanks
Suggestions…???
