| Professional Review: |
| Old Crow Medicine Show release in 2008 their third Nettwerk album called Tennessee Pusher. Produced by the legendary Don Was (Bob Dylan, Bonnie Raitt, the Rolling Stones), the album features the first single "Caroline" along with 11 other Old Crow originals and an American standard called "Lift Him Up" by Blind Alfred Reed. Having sold over 290K albums, OCMS can attribute much of their success to their relentless touring schedule. Between headlining shows and countless festivals (Bonnaroo, Telluride Bluegrass Festival, New Orleans Jazz Festival, etc), the band lives on the road - they thrive on the communal experience of the live shows. OCMS have made a name for themselves as energetic performers with an unbridled spirit."as musicians, songwriters and singers, they are the smartest and finest purveyors of American music to come down the pike in decades." - Don Was |

 Written on October 16, 2008 Summary: Very Disappointed I fell in love with this genre of music once I heard their first album. Then their second album(Big Iron World) was even better! Then I found Eutaw and played the hell out of it! So I found out they were producing a new album and I was so excited for it to come out. I previewed it before I bought it and was like "What the hell?". So I got it and I can say I am very disappointed with it. I cannot stand country music and they sound really close to it on this album. I don't know if it's because of another producer they got but whatever it is, I prefer the old stuff anyday over this new album and I think a lot of people are with me on that. Lets just hope the feedback they get is somewhat negative and they realize the old sound is much better than this modern day stuff. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE this band and will support them always. But I just wasn't expecting them to change their style like most all other bands today. What made them so unique before was their old timey sound that is nowhere to be found on this new album. I guess if you like the slow, serious style then you will like this. Me, I prefer upbeat, fun and happy sounding tunes. I think they made a change for the worse but I will always be a die hard Old Crow fan.  Written on October 11, 2008 Summary: Methanphetamine, a real Humdinger. Old Crow Does what they do. It is the essence of the band not to give two hoots and a holler on what is expected and to give fine music and they have done that again. Oh, they sure have. This time they dug deeper in their heart and gave a little more of theirselves and I love it. I LOVE IT. Meth is a masterpeice. The Martin Luther King song is haunting and on par with Bobbie Jo Gentry's Ode to Billy Joe and how often does that Happen? HUMDINGER is a stomping, banjo slice of perfection. And its delicious to hear them sing , LOW DOWN HOOCHIE COOCHIE on Greatest Hustler of All. DONT MISS THIS WORK. Go to their MySpace and read what KETCH has to say about the Production of the album with Cowboy Jack Clement....and the others that were involved. This band is one of the most important torchbearers in existence and will gather more and more respect with time. They have mad music skills. This album is Terrific and doesnt need a cheerleader. It stands on its own. It bears no weakness. Amen. Written on October 9, 2008 Summary: What happened to one of my favorite bands? I was hoping this album would be a return to form for OCMS after the disappointing Big Iron World but, in fact, it is even worse. There is just no spark and the songwriting is horrific. I don't know if they quit drinking, doing coke, or what the problem is but the album just sounds so sober. No fun.  Written on October 3, 2008 Summary: Not that bad, Not that great The first time I heard The Old Crow Medicine Show I was blown away. I believe it was a live version of Shack #9. I'd never heard anything quite like it. I got my hands on a copy of Greetings from Wawa and Eutaw and was amazed. Their OCMS album was equally impressive. They had taken old time classics like Oh my Little Darlin and stamped it with their own unique sound. The sound was very raw and yet beautiful in it's own unpolished kind of way. Tennessee Pusher is a notable departure from that unique old timey sound. It's more refined and lacks that raw old time sound. There seems to be no traditional songs on this album. I understand that as a band matures they experiment with different sounds but I just can't get into Tennessee Pusher. Granted there are a few good tunes on here but I would much rather listen to these boys play Cumberland Gap, Little Birdie, Kitty Clyde or Hesitation Blues. It's those very kinds of songs that made the band successful. I wish they wouldn't mess with a good thing. Written on October 2, 2008 Summary: The bar just hit the roof I am a big Old Crow fan, but didn't indulge in their newer stuff until last week. Let me say that I was floored by "Tennessee Pusher." I play bluegrass mandolin in a bluegrass band and love bluegrass and old-time music as much as anyone, but I am glad that these guys blossomed on this CD. It's not the typical Old Crow ram it down your throat fast, old-time medicine show. It's more Bob Dylan and Neil Young than the Skillet Lickers. There are traces of R&B in there too, with a country sound throughout. If you like Old Crow because they are an old time band you won't like this CD as much. But, just remember that Old Crow isn't really an old time band, and most of the guys are northerners who just love that music. They grew up in the 80s and 90s listening to what was on the radio, then chose their favorite music as they matured. It shows on this CD, and it's the most natural and unforced they've ever sounded. I love it because it's a collection of finely crafted songs that reflect themes faced by young people today. I can also actually believe what they are singing about, instead of just getting hyped by these young guys doing an old thing fast and sublimely reckless. The Old Crow Medicine Show has matured, and the result is a masterpiece. |
