Hooray for the Weary Boys! What an amazing first album! The music has not lost its power and driving energy in the studio. Bless the Boys for having the good sense not to over-produce it. The harmonies are just right. If you want to know how to be true to the spirit of the music of Jimmie Rodgers, Bill Monroe, or the Stanley Brothers and still make music that can get a crowd of 20-somethings on their feet and dancing, take a lesson from the Weary Boys.
It's a shame that I can only give this album 5 stars. I saw the Weary Boys open up for Speedtrucker last week and it was one of the best damn shows I have seen in a long time. I wish I could have met the guys in tha band. Seldom do you see someone playing country the way it is supposed to be played. A++++++
it's great to hear the old country style new again. keep up the great work!
If you know a damn thing about roots music and you like to drink beer, welcome to the music they will play when you get to heaven.
Pure, loud, and fast - music the way it should be made in the Lone Star State.
these good 'ol bloys really strum musical instruments great. My old lady even likes 'em.
These dudes have got it: down home rhythm and the melodies keep runnin' round my brain. Amazing for their voices and virtuosity and presence. If this is their first album, watch out! Can't wait for the next disc! More, please!
Damn good stuff. The guys are a blast live so don't miss 'em.
Non-stop foot tapping, sing along, feel good music. I picked up this CD and it is always in my CD player.
