Put The O Back In Country
Ha... stuff legends are made of? While Shooter's bloodlines are deeply immersed in trad. country music, his latest effort is nothing close to that of either of his parents. In fact, "Put the O Back in Country" is a sorry excuse of a southern rock album mistakenly classified as country. It's nothing more than the blandness that one can come to expect from the Universal South label. White trash at its finest.

Shooter Jennings
Artist Review
I love Waylon Jennings, and when I saw the video for 4th of July I had to be this album. This has to be one of the best Cd's I have ever bought. If this is any sign of whats to come Shooter is going to have a legendary career. Way to go Shooter, make your daddy proud!!!

Put The O Back In Country
I've been living in Georgia for the past 4 months and have really been missing the Texas music scene and all the concerts. I saw Shooter open for CCR in Albany, GA a couple of weeks ago and he kicks ass. A great guy doing a great thing!

Put The O Back In Country
This is quite simply THE MOST HORRIBLE collection of songs recorded in any genre in any format I have ever heard. I frankly haven't been this disappointed in any CD since Jimmy Buffett released "Don't Stop the Carnival". I'm not one to normally put down "honest" music, but this just plain suck. It's not outlaw music or country music anymore than Kenny Chesney, and Kenny Chesney can at least sing. He (Kenny) can hit most of his notes. At least Time McGraw is smart enough to do a Bruce Robison song. An outlaw is supposed to be someone feared. A little scarey. I have no doubt that Toby Keith would kick the shit out of Shooter Jennings in any kind of fight. Listening to this CD should remove anyone else's doubt, as well.. Granted, the musicians were top notch, and the production was first class. Still, you can't make chicken salad out of chicken shit. I didn't like it and I threw it out my truck window after bearing the whole thing one time around. If you have an extra 15 bucks do yourself a favor and wipe your ass with it - trust me, that is a much better use of the money...The only O this puts back is the two "O"'s in PR which is all this thing is (on both counts)....

Shooter Jennings
Artist Review
Bought the cd after i saw Shoorter 3 consecutive nights with Ragweed(Jacksonville, Valdosta and Albany). The cd is great but get ready for a tour that rivals all of our favorites, Ragweed. Finally a show worth going to. If you like in your face music and energy than the cd is a must and the show is even more so. Hold on to you underwear because Shooter is about to blow them off.

Shooter Jennings
Artist Review
Shooters blend of country and rock and roll is really in your face. I think it's a great beginning for these guys. They need to polish it up a bit and get rid of the promos during the cd. At first I thought the George Jones and Hank Jr. promos were okay, but after hearing them a couple of times it starts to add to the "coat-tail" theory. I believe this band has the talent in their own right to be successful. They need to just pull it all together.

Shooter Jennings
Artist Review
Shooter is one of the least talented artists on the Texas scene. Granted, in the Texas scene everyone is better than those nashville no-talent "artists." Unfortunately, I firmly believe that Shooter is riding his father's coat tails (god bless his soul).

Put The O Back In Country
A welcome relief to a store shelf full of cookie cutter c*ntry. Shooter Jennings showcases his own individualism and creative writing that has to be based solely on life experiences and lessons learned the hard way. Its hard to believe that the writer of these soulfilled tracks isnt even thirty. From track one through to the last cut, Shooter captivates the listener making them want more and more of his "outlaw" country style. If this debut album is any indication of the career ahead of him, Shooter better clear off some wall space because there will be more platinum and gold to hang alongside his legendary fathers collection!

Shooter Jennings
Artist Review
Waylon Jennings is one of my alltime favorite artist in any genre and I was excited to find out his son was putting out an album. Imagine my surprise when I got the album on Tuesday and loved it. I was somewhat shocked it is so good. "4th of July" is Bob Seger-esque. "Lonesome Blues" contains all the soul missing from country radio. The melody and attitude of "Manifesto No.1" remind me of Waylon's "You Can Have Her." The hidden track on the album, "My Song For You" is by all means worth the 15 second gap between it and "Daddy's Farm." It is my favorite track on the album. "Put the 'O' Back In Country" is a throwback to genuine Outlaw country and is hopefully a sign of what is to come from Shooter Jennings.
