Shooter Jennings - Put the 'O' Back in Country

The son of legendary parents Waylon Jennings and Jessi Colter, Shooter Jennings attempts to make his own mark with this, his debut record. Shooter aims to restore country music's purity. Waylon fought this battle his own way, back in the day. But the sun has sunk and the shadows have spread deeper across country music since then. And as cowboy poseurs roam this dim and dreary land, Shooter sets it ablaze with an affirmation that country music - real country music - is back.

The passion on "Southern Comfort," scraped raw from the walls of some backwoods church...the guitars on "Daddy's Farm," stacked, harmonized and slathered in deep-fried soul..."4th of July," a crank-it-up summer celebration sweetened by a sprinkling of George Jones...the thread-shredding, back-road, hairpin spin of "Busted in Baylor County"...and, above all, "Put the 'O' Back In Country," which jabs a finger in the eye of everything that's wrong with America's music today.

Great debut album by a very talented artist posted on 07/09/2008 5 Stars Reviewer: Jerry McCormick Anyone who knows who Shooter Jennings is probably already has this album or knows the songs that are on it. I must say it's still one of my favorites even though the other 2 albums are great too. There really isn't any filler here, there all great songs. I would highly recommend picking this album up if you don't already have a copy. The only downside is the hidden track on the cd somehow didn't fit on the vinyl so I still had to burn a copy for that one particular song. The guy also puts on a great concert for the $15 ticket.

Every track a winner! posted on 03/29/2006 5 Stars Reviewer: David This is what albums used to be all about: two sides of great music, carefully assembled into half-hour sessions that sound like the guys are playing right in my living room. You can almost smell the whiskey and cigarette smoke. Excellent record that gets one hell of alot of rotation around here.
