Jim Dandy is a Ras-cewl! .......2005-06-01
Ana-hoo, I don't think he respects me much, although I dress up like his idol's old girlfriend Ruby Starr. He done caught me at the edge of the stage singin' "Jim Dandy is a ras-cewl" and stopped the band to scream at me in front of everybody in the club. "It's Jim Dandy to the rescue, ya bimbo!" Everybody laughed while I cried, but I still kept dancin' 'causin' that song rocks my booty off. Unfortunately, he dedicated "Happy Hooker" to me after we *made up* during first break, but I jez can't get enough. How can you say no to a dude who likes a band that paved the way for the likes of George Thoroughgood, the Georgia Satellites, Aerosmith, and David Lee Roth, only to be left behind as a footnote in rock history while their avid students reaped the glory they themselves still deserve?
I think about great, ballsy blues numbers with the cherry bomb of funk thrown in, and can't deny the infectiousness of "Movin'," and the almost metallic kiester crunch of "Mad Man," and the words highly underrated come to mind. True, Jim Dandy Mangrum was never a fantastic voice, but I'll be gosh-durned iffin' he didn't have as much carnal appeal as that cross dresser from Van Halen who stole everything he knows from him. An' besidin' all of that, what's a whiskey burned voice with the right 'tude when it's accompanied by three great axe-slingers, a hell of a drummer in Tommy Aldridge--who's played for everyone and their bros--and some good old southern blues and country roots funkified?
I'm still at a crossroads, y'all. Jimbob Dandyplant caught me at home with all three gee-tarists from a Skynyrd tribute band called Jacksonville Kid. Looks like I'm "Swimmin' in Quicksand." Funk-ay!

When Robbie Robertson and the rest of the Band split into two camps in the late '70s, who ever thought Robertson would get the worst of the deal? After all, Robertson had written just about every important song the Band had ever recorded and his biting Stratocaster work was essential to the Canadian group's sound. As it turned out, Robertson's solo albums have been embarrassing duds, while his ex-partners have released two superb efforts as the Band: Jericho (1993) and High on the Hog. Levon Helm, Rick Danko, and the late Richard Manuel handled all the vocals in the Band's heyday, so the voices are still there; the rock-solid rhythm section is still there; and so are Garth Hudson's inimitable, intoxicating keyboard parts. --Geoffrey HimesCustomer Reviews:

The Band. Up`s and downs on a variable CD........2006-02-09
Track 3 Where I should always be, has more power as a nice ballad, with a very "airy and open" soundpicture all trough. Track 4 Free your mind, is a more uptempo song, with a "bigband beat" that has a certain "sting". It delivers, but nothing special . But hey, on Track 5 Forever Young we are back in "god ole Band mood". This has the trademarks of a The Band. It`s written by Bob Dylan, and it`s a tribute to Jerry Garcia. Garth Hudson`s organ play sneak`s in to your`e soul, as on every "great" Band song`s. Track 6 The High Prize of Love, is a little let down, once again. It`s very "muddy" and to distorted to have a great listen too. Track 7 Crazy Mama, is a different cup of tea. As a blues rocker this one delivers, with a good strong backbeat that pushes the song forward in the right direction to the end. Track 8 I must love you to much, is a fast rocker, that has a enough tempo and beat to make you put on your`e rock and roll shoes.
Track 9 She knows, is a traditonal ballad, which delivers in a slow jazzy mood, but it`s not up there. It`s anyway nice to
listen to as a "late night gem" but nothing special. Track 10 Rumble Jungel, is a "musical rumble to the jungle" and sounds like it, with a weird vocal to carry it trough. Track 11 Young Blood, is a Leiber/ Stoller Classic. The Band does it in a "slow up tempo beat" . Quite okei. Anyway. This is The band, with`too many up`s and downs on a variable CD.
Depends on what you're looking for: NOT like Jericho.......2004-06-08

Kevin Fowler formerly of Dangerous Toys.......2005-01-17
Great songs on another great CD........2002-09-24
along with his melodies after a few listenings to any of his CDs.
High on the Hog is loaded with great tunes.I especially like the tunes, Not Lovin Anymore, Tall drink of water and the great remake of Queen's Fat Bottomed Girls. This guy has an original style all his own that is a lot different than most of the contemporary country music that is released these days. His voice to me has it's own originality to it.He doesn't sound like anyone else. I have seen Kevin and his band twice live and let me tell you he can deliver these songs live as well if not better than on CD. He puts on a great entertaining show, and I was singing along the whole set. So if you want some real down to earth homemade Texas music I think you should give this one a try.

Get More Than You Bargained For.......2002-08-13
This guy also knows how to write lyrics. They are the catchy type you immediately want to learn (helps when singing along). And you can even understand them when they get fast. They may not all be his - I recognize one song from one of my old Queen albums - but they are clean and clever.
I have a feeling he will get compared to guys like Pat Green and Robert Earl Keen. I'm not sure if that is a good comparison or not. But I would say that if you like them, chances are you're money is well spent on Kevin Fowler.
Workmanlike independent Texas country.......2002-08-07
The Austin-based Fowler tours a Texas circuit of clubs, honky-tonks, bars, schools, dancehalls and fairs that is a virtual world unto itself. Regional stars like Fowler, along with Pat Green, Cory Morrow, Clay Blaker, Jack Ingram, and Bruce Robison (the latter two of whom are making bids for broader stardom with their releases on Sony's Lucky Dog label), are crowd favorites who make music that's tailored for live performance. Their songs combine danceable tempos (two-steps, waltzes, ballads) with sharp lyrics that are mindful of country's classic subjects (lovin', drinkin', cheatin') but with a contemporary sensibility. They're not so much rewriting the classic country catalog as borrowing its language to write about current topics.
Fowler has a pleasant, husky voice, and even when he applies it to up-tempo tunes there's a sense of balladry in his singing. Perhaps it's the remnants of his hard-rock roots (notably with Austin's Dangerous Toys) showing through his cowboy hat and pearl-snapped western shirt. His lyrics lean to the clever, ala Charlie Robison, but not quite as devilish. Tunes like "The Lord Loves the Drinkin' Man" and "Ol' What's Her Name" are sure to be sing-along favorites on a Texas Saturday honky-tonk night, and the Tejano flavors of "Senorita Mas Fina" and "All the Tequila in Tijuana" (the latter sporting the patron saint of Texas country, Willie Nelson, on guitar and vocals) add a nice touch. Fowler's country transposition of Queen's "Fat Bottomed Girls," like several other Queen songs have been transposed before, is nearly seamless. If only Freddy Mercury had lived to hear it!
Fowler's workmanlike honky-tonk country is miles beyond anything coming out of Nashville these days, and the fans who turn out to see him on tour (and those who can't make it to Texas, of course) will no doubt enjoy this recording.
