Loved it
When I heard the song I looked to see who was singing it and played every song on the CD and LOVED every song on the CD. I heard the song "Crazy Eyes" on a jukebox which really blew my mind because these types of songs are usually not ones a person hears in that venue. I ordered it the next day form amazon. I cannot say enough great things about this band. They are insightful and innovative and daring too. I think anyone who listens to this will be a fan! .


Surpassed my expectations
In this case, difference is good. After hearing about the switch-up in production, I was not expecting much from this album. This is definitely a more produced-sounding OCMS. The CD is still incredible. I've created some OCMS fans with this CD.


disappointed is not strong enough
(so much for that failing media) i was impressed by the weak , wholly unimaginative, unoriginal, and bleakly insipid attempt at meaningfulness; in not only the lyrics, but also the instrumental(lack of) expression. i purchased this music some time ago, based on a newspaper recommendation. don't waste your time, or money. especially in a down economy.


Not bad if you aren't looking for what makes (made?) Old Crow sound like Old Crow
Spent many good evenings listening to them jam at the Station Inn in Nashville. I have been an OCMS fan for quite a while. I am quite surprised at the fact that I just don't like these songs-- really not one of them grabs you the way Tear It Down, Tell It to Me, CC Rider, We're all in this Thing Together, or almost all of their early work does. These songs just don't seem to have the grit or the heart that those did-- and I will admit their old stuff is rough at times. But that was what made it so great. It was gritty, rough, dirty and real. . . just like the music that it comes from (old time string band / hillbilly) and just like the stuff their singing about.

Truthfully, if I hadn't seen the name on the album, I am not sure I would have known this was Old Crow. It is starting to sound more and more like just another country band with a twang of bluegrass. Which is fine if that is what you are looking for, and if this is their "evolution," then best of luck to them as the progress. But it probably isn't progress if it isn't as good-- even if it does sound more up to date and produced.

I suppose being successful makes it harder to write and genuinely sing songs like "Trouble that I'm In," "Can't Get Right Blues" and "Trials and Troubles". Maybe you need nights spent in Trinity Lane motels outside of Nashville to really sing about the "Down South Blues".

If you are new to Old Crow and you want to hear their best stuff, I suggest you take a look at their older albums like Eutaw and Live and their first self-titled album. Those albums are gold (even if they sound like gravel). .


Incredible
It was beyond all my expectations. Out of the blue, I attended their concert last night in Atlanta. They are hot!

I just purchased their CD, Tennessee Pusher. I really didn't know that anyone was out there that could play that well, sing that well and tell the story, the real story.

I have a new favorite group. I'm still stunned.
