Jimmy Peters, “Another Sore Loser” (Russ Music, 2010)
Reviewed by Abu Ramses – ALL TRACKS FCC CLEAN
3rd album of singer-songwriter Jimmy Peters, who says his heroes are Randy Newman, Warren Zevon, Joni Mitchell, John Prine, Jonathan Richmond, Jane Siberry and Elvis Costello. I hear some Bob Dylan influence too. Peters plays peddle steel guitar to produce the typical country, twangy sound, accompanied by fiddle, keyboards, accordion (on some) and percussion.
Tracks
***1. Ghostman – up-tempo, - 3:01
2. The Only Show in Town – mid-tempo ballad -2:41
3. Those Guys – mid-tempo, nice steel pedals - 3:21
4. Honeymooning – up-tempo, tongue in cheek1:54
5. Indian School – mid-tempo, pedal steels intro - 2:45
**6. Hero for an Hour – up-tempo, accordion gives a Balkan twist- 2:35
7. My Oldest Son, Jeff – Dylanesque sound - 3:28
8. Another Sore Loser – part hard-driving, part wailing ballad - 2:58
9. The Years between Our Dads – down-tempo, ballad of sad childhood including homosexual molestation (WTF?) - 4:00
10. Keeping It for a Friend – nice pedal steels, lyrics, so-so – 3:00
11. The Christian Parade – walz tempo, spoof of evangelism – 2:54
12. Better Luck Next Time – down-tempo ballad; Dylan & Beatles influences – 3:27
