Give the new Kid Rock a shot.


I initially picked up the Kid Rock "Rock and Roll Jesus" and scanned it quickly. Not bad but it was not on my must play list. I gave it a run the other day and I'm here listening to it yet again. What a change in the "Kid". He is sounding Skynard / rock / mountain music / fun. Two of the favorites are #10 "Blue jeans and a rosary" and #11 "Half your age" (the more you hear this one the more you like it). I like all sorts of music from classical to country and this disk is up with my favorites. LMK if anyone has any imput on his "new" sound.

Different music?! Are you kidding me? And what's up with the "if it's well recorded and sounds good on my system" viewpoint. I'm sure Michael Bolton is "well recorded"...that doesn't mean I want to listen to it. The only people who like this stuff and thinks that it's different probably have the lamest music selections in their collection. The argument here would be akin to me insisting that a hardcore metalhead would just LOVE the new Celine Dion. Hey...didn't she do an AC/CD song?
Wow I just listened to it and it IS pretty good. I take back everything I said. I can't believe how great it is in fact. I just listened to it three times in a row. I guess this is what the kids are calling underground/alternative rock.
My only objection is that people keep saying "listen to something NEW or something DIFFERENT" like Kid Rock is some sort of "different" musician that no one has ever heard of. How is Kid Rock either new or different? His first album came out almost 16 years ago. And there are more intelligent things to listen to that are FUN and LOUD. I don't care what ya'll listen to and I don't know why I even try. You can't teach a Miller or Bud man to appreciate a fine Belgian Ale.
