Another fine Dale Watson release featuring his usual themes:
deception, breakups, women problems. All original songs.
1 – (2:16) Call Me Lucky* Mid-tempo shuffle, self-effacing, nice.
2 – (2:43) The Dumb Song* Mid-tempo anthem to self-destruction, funny.
3 – (3:38) Johnny And June* Slow ¾ time duet with Celine Lee about the Cashes.
4 – (2:42) Tupelo Mississippi & A ’57 Fairlane* Mid shuffle w/horns, good choice.
5 – (2:23) Haul Off And Do It* Hank Williams-esq, mid-tempo weeper, fine.
6 – (2:08) Restless* Mid-up march, haunted weeper, fine.
7 – (3:03) David Buxkemper* Odd mid tune about farmer/trucker, weird but good.
8 – (2:38) Inside View* Classic mid shuffle, weeper, so fine.
9 – (2:17) You Weren’t Supposed To Feel This Good* Hates himself for feeling
this way, funny.
10 – (2:29) Mama’s Smile Okay but a little pokey for me.
11 – (3:01) Who Needs This Man* Fine mid-up song of longing, it rocks.
12 – (3:01) Run Away* Cautionary mid-tempo shuffle, steer clear of Dale, fun.
