专辑介绍

by Jack Leaver

Robbie Fulks is cleverly twisted, deliciously irreverent, and one of the best of the new country singer/songwriters. Musically, Country Love Songs supplies plenty of hardcore, bottle-tippin', honky tonk country, with a '50s production that sounds like it's supposed to be there. Fulks writes and sings country music that bears little or no resemblance to what dominates the airwaves; rather, his material harks back to an era when humor and dark subject matter shared the same page of a writer's composition book. Paying homage to the classic Bakersfield sound, with former Buckeroo Tom Brumley shining on pedal steel, Fulks delivers &The Buck Starts Here,& which just might be the best country song since &He Stopped Loving Her Today.& Lyrically, Fulks can travel some pretty spooky highways, as in the descriptive ballad &Barely Human,& a drinking song that's as tortured as they get, with the song's character &barely human from twilight till dawn.& Other strong tracks include the saga of an aging movie starlet who loses it in &She Took a Lot of Pills (And Died)& -- which first appeared on the second volume of the label's Insurgent Country compilations -- and the swingin' &Every Kind of Music But Country.&
