Chuck Mead “Free State Serenade” Label: Plowboy Records Joseph Reviewed 2/28/14 Great honky-tonk, hillbilly blues and rockabilly from Chuck Mead. Recorded with his regular band the Grassy Knoll Boys. Mighty excellent. 1 – (3:29) Knee Deep In The Wakarusa River* Mid-tempo country crooner, fine steel. 2 – (5:18) The Devil By Their Side Chugging rock’n’roll tune about Civil War murder. 3 – (2:32) Neosho Valley Sue* Fine swinging number a la Bob Wills. 4 – (4:32) On A Slow Train Through Arkansas* Bluesy rocker, really soulful. 5 – (4:10) Little Ivy* Sad little song of abduction & murder, with banjo & dobro. 6 – (4:00) Evil Wind* Standout rockabilly shouter, about spreading mayhem. 7 – (2:31) Ten Light Years Away* Up-tempo tune about space aliens, fun. 8 – (3:13) Reno County Girl* Pretty country love ballad, really fine. 9 – (3:59) A Short Goodbye* Pulsating, primitive rocker, road song, nice. 10 – (3:18) The Light Of Day* Funny ¾ time morning-after weeper, terrific. 11 – (3:16) Ain’t Nothing Like The Love Of A Woman* Cajun-style song of redemption. 12 – (3:26) Sittin’ On Top Of The Bottom* Growling, gritty rocker from the gutter. | ||
