Just Keeps Getting Better!

This latest effort is proof to us "Hurtin' Albertans" and the rest of the world that Corb Lund is getting better with every album! This one starts out kickin’ with the title track and carries it through to the closing track which is an interesting and unique duet performance of the Truck Got Stuck with Corb and Ramblin’ Jack Elliot. Corb shows respect to the Hurtin’ Albertans that came before him by having the Legendary Ian Tyson sing a melodic duet with him on the track The Rodeo’s Over. Corb Lund is a very unique individual and this is definitely apparent in his music. Tracks like Truck Got Stuck, All I Wanna Do Is Play Cards and Hurtin’ Albertan (to name a few) all have that special Corb Lund story telling, groovy foot tappin’ style that will have you singing the songs all day long! If you’re a fan of down home Canadiana, this one is a must have on your iPod!

Canadian country at its finest

Corb Lund is a country throw back…way back…past Dwight Yoakam, past Elvis, to Buck Owen, Bob Wills, and Wilf Carter. Lund’s songs sound like 1940’s traditional country twang tunes as they spin out tall tales about obsessive card playing, crazy Calgary cowgirls , pick-up trucks stuck in the mud, hurtin’ Albertans, Oiler hockey games, and drinking before noon. Each tune is seriously twisted with lines like “good Copenhagen is better than bad cocaine” or “always keep an edge on yr knife son, cuz a good sharp edge is a man’s best hedge against the vague uncertainties of life”. This country music will make those quaffed and squeaky clean Nashville country stars pale and puke which to me is a good thing. If your guilty pleasure is listening to chicken picking guitar and old western music while sippin’ a beer, feet up on the railing of the porch, and pullin’ your dirty ball cap down over your eyes… Corb Lund is your boy.

The truth comes out

Corb Lund is one of the best song writers today. The truck had to get stuck for them to get out and into the spot light and I do not see the light getting dim any time soon.
