It's nice waking up and seeing the sun shone through the window to feel that lengthens the day at eight there is not artificial light and also that it is time to put summer clothes in the closets again. I love that feeling and maybe now I feel really because it is the first day since the start of spring that can be said that the scenery does some justice to the tone of the usual weather station. Luce a brand new blue sky is making me better carry the burden of having to drag back a slight impingement due to the stupidity of the weekend, because you can say I have an accordion in the place where my spine should be because of having slept at home on Saturday a couple of friends that I have empowered a mattress inflatable without realizing that I was losing air has to be played by the side. All this does not matter, no matter the pain if you are happy, and me this climate and this time I put in a good mood and more if the disc accompanied as great as that of Old Crow Medicine Show, which takes a look at what cream of the American tradition of eleven songs (some his own, other reviews of popular U.S.) full of bluegrass, alt-country, folk, as soon as imminently danceable sound restful. A joy to drive recovered little by doing well Quoy Hayel, the main 'culprit' that to replay this fifth album (though technically it was his debut more or less officer, because the first came to light in a very discreet, one was released only on cassette and another was recorded live) of Harrisonburg (Virginia), although residents in Nashville (Tennessee), all the way out of bus brought me to the neighborhood yesterday, marking the rhythm with their hands and feet like one of those spoiled wimps leading mobile music at full blast bothering the staff on public transport. Despite his youth, the skill of the group left a gaping over for good use of the coordinates of the past, understood the proposal as an exercise that seemed to pull the influence of any of the many musical forms that have been available 'the medical shows, "traveling show that the turn of the century that lasted until the early forties and we have seen in countless movies where a man was selling health products as background sound of a band (do not know I mean if, if anyone doubts it will clarify in the comments), including old-time, bluegrass, country, folk and blues of the Mississippi. To give you an idea, the proposal of the band would fit well with the melodies of the orchestra rural dance halls of the United States, the rope
music southern Appalachian and blues from Memphis, as with the band movie soundtrack Coen brothers' 'O'Brother'. A genuine speech today in a claim of age-old teachings of forgotten artists such as Roscoe Holcomb, Harmonika Frank Floyd, Dock Boggs or Woody Guthrie, always with the freshness of the transaction to a mind that welcomes recent retrospective at the utmost respect. But hey, I'm on and so much explanation, it is best if you have no prejudices with that kind of sounds give him an intense listening (if you have not already done so) to pieces as fabulous as "Tell it to me" unison singing a catchy chorus with a letter of órdago and a banjo and a harmonica that incite to roll, "Big time in the jungle", a marvel ideal for a drive through one of those endless road of road movies, perhaps located mainly in the state of Utah (which incidentally named in the song), and this time with the violin as the undisputed star, "Poor man ", another of the four traditional songs appropriate to their ideology (ironically these are the first to the fifth track, except the second) and going a perfect fit for their emotional and contrasted with the peaceful development wild and accelerated "Tear it down" and "Hard to Love", to offset this by jumping with uncontrollable pace, and return to tame the beast with "CC Rider", where the voice of the singer recalls moments of Slim Cessna one of the two versions with designation of origin, since the original was written by Ma Rainey, a hero of the blues from Alabama, but was a native of Columbus (Georgia), in the early 20's, "Hard to hell", my favorite album by his insatiable trot and the incomparable violin duel, and "Wagoon wheel", composed by Bob Dylan and adding some detail in a piece that describes a journey south along the east coast of the United States from New England in the northeast, through Philadelphia (Pennsylvania), with the intended destination of Raleigh (North Carolina), where the protagonist expects to see her lover. A beautiful story to lay aside (if we do not "Caroline" the beautiful song that really closes the disc, which is out of credits) to a magical album, recorded by Critter Fuqua, Morgan Jahnig, Kevin Hayes, Willie Watson and Ketcham Secor star with the help of the great country singer Gillian Welch , which curiously does not make her voice but the drums, his right hand also David Rawlings and bluegrass singer Randy Thompson, who also sings, plays solo harmonica here.
