This is country music as it should be. I've been a fan of Moe Bandy since the early 70s and this disc is the perfect introduction to his work. Songs like I Just Started Hatin' Cheatin' Songs Today, Hank Williams You Wrote My Life, Bandy the Rodeo Clown, She's Not Really Cheatin' (She's Just Gettin' Even) are classics and this disc is an essential addition to and collection. Transfer is good and I checked the tracks against the original records. Recommended.
If the 1970's would have embraced the sounds of Moe Bandy more than those of Barbara Mandrell, Crystal Gayle, and Kenny Rogers, it would have been a whole different ballgame. The music on this album will remind you of what true country music is all about; I do believe the choice of the album title is appropriate as this is one of those albums that mix well with beer or bourbon (or both). Moe Bandy was definately a stylist who was obviously influenced by George Jones and Hank Williams, but you soon realize that Moe had a style all of his own. It's often overlooked that Moe also had a few notable duets including with Becky Hobbs and Judy Bailey, but his duet with the fabulous Janie Fricke in "It's a Cheatin Situation" will raise the hairs on the back of your neck. I dont think there's a bad song on the album, which is saying something for a 20 track disc. Moe did seem to fizzle out in the 80's after the intro of the neo-traditionalists, which is ironic considering he carried the torch of traditional country in the 70's. I am glad to see that his duets with Joe Stampley were not included here, although I'm sure many will disagree with me. While his duets with Joe were entertaining and deserved all of the air play they recieved, they were not in the same league as the songs included on this album. A+
Anyone who wonders what real country sounds like could do much worse than picking up this disc of Moe Bandy's early and best recordings. Nearly all of his early hits are here and remastered, aside from his duets with Joe Stampley.
Fiddles and steel guitars are prominent in these mainly 70s recordings when Bandy, along with Gary Stewart and Mel Street, bucked the glossy Nashville sound in favor of a more 50s honky tonk feel. Cheating and sad songs abound, and anyone who needs a fix of real country should get this.
I would recommend this album to anyone who enjoys traditional country music. All twenty songs range from very good to outstanding, with not a loser in the bunch. I searched for a long time to find a Moe Bandy album with all original recordings. None of these seem to be later re-recordings.
