TURNTABLE TUESDAY - Let 'er Buck - Jack Nelson Band
Most
of the reviews I post are a result of two routes. Either I approach the artist
or their promotions manager contacts me. Twice since rebirthing Kelly’s Country
in 2009, has an artist contacted me. The first got lost in the shuffle – a loss
I sincerely regret. The other is the man I’m introducing you today via a review
of his CD ‘Let ‘er Buck’.
JackNelson offers up true honky tonk with a bit of rock and roll grit… just enough
to get your attention without straying from the country music notes I love. I
have listened to the first five of the eleven tracks and love every one. “Let ‘er
Buck” kicks off the CD, drawing you to the dance floor before you know what hit
you. I started out with the volume low but immediately reached to crank up the
sound. “Made the Devil Proud" slows things down a bit while the chorus makes
for the perfect audience involvement. “Texas Dance Halls” gives a nod to some
of the best honky tonks in the state, places Jack and his brother (CameranNelson) cut their musical teeth on during their journey to individual careers. “Can
You Hear Me Up There”, a tribute to his grandfather, is reminiscent of a Lee Brice tune that pulls at your
heart. Before the memory can put you into a melancholy mood, “Honky Tonk Angel”
puts you right back on the fun time track and sending you ‘round the dance
floor in high spirits.
The construction
of this CD is a smooth transition from one track to the next while riding a
parallel to the career journey ahead for Jack Nelson and his band. Without
hearing the other six tracks (we need to work on that, Jack LOL) I have to say "Let
‘er Buck" sets the tone for a solid career in this wacky business.
I am giving this CD a solid....
Here's a sneak peek of Jack's talent:

TURNTABLE TUESDAY- The Legacy Continues: Nathan Stanley
THE LEGACY CONTINUES
Nathan Stanley
THE LEGACY CONTINUES is an apt
title for Nathan Stanley’s latest album. From the opening chords on the banjo of
Are You Missing Me through the remaining fifteen tracks, the instrumentals
combined with Nathan’s soulful tone recalls a time steeped in family values and
tradition. Nathan Stanley knows about both of those, having grown up playing
music with his grandfather, Dr. Ralph Stanley.
Originally released in May of
2013, this re-release includes two additional tracks with his grandfather. Dr.Ralph Stanley’s pride for his grandson resonates in their combined vocals on Rank
Stranger and Where Could I Go But To The Lord. Nathan pays tribute to him in PaPaw
I Love You. Brad Paisley lends his diverse talents to Will You Miss Me When I’m Gone.
Every track flows like a mountain stream, the ebb and flow cleansing the
listener with each note.
Destined to become one of the
classic bluegrass albums of our time, THE LEGACY CONTINUES is proof that when we
guide our children on the right path great things will come.
I tip my hat:
