After my Redwing post again an album that has never been re-issued on cd, though deserved it because of sheer quality. Tom Jans died in 1984 and left 5 albums to the world of which this one is my favorite. Just like his girlfriend Valerie Carter he was a representative of the typical LA-sound of the seventies. Little Feat's Lowell George was the executive producer of the album and also played guitars on it. Tom Waits later paid homage to Jans with the Bone Machine cut "Whistle Down the Wind." Anyone who likes the songs of Jackson Browne, Gram Parsons, Warren Zevon or the Eagles should also listen to this almost forgotten gem.

Hayseed Dixie meld the two most frequently and easily mocked forms of popular music metal and country. Let There Be Rockgrass is essentially an anthology of metal arranged for the banjo, fiddle, acoustic guitar and upright bass, sung with accents straight out of Deliverance.

This is a long lost gem of country rock. One of the albums (together with The Byrd's Sweetheart Of The Rodeo, Dillard & Clark's Fantastic Expedition, Bob Dylan's Nashville Skyline and Steve Young's Rock Salt and Nails) that started it all. The brothers go back to their roots on this album with excerpts from a 1952 radio show from the Everly Family mixed with new studio songs that almost 40 years later still are fully alive and kicking. It contains fierce rockers like T For Texas, great folksongs and the most beautiful version ever made of Merle Haggard's Sing Me Back Home. Highly recommended! Q Magazine called it in 1995: "...a modern country classic with sterling contributions..." and Rolling Stone wrote: "...a warm, sentimental album that is nostalgic and contemporary at the same time....Anybody interested in the so-called country revival now sweeping rock should pick up this album. It's right fine..."
