Customer Reviews of Native Sons
Gets you back to the source I own this on vinyl; the music stands up to repeated listenings and drives a useful phenomena. Take a listen to Track 5, Sweet Mental Revenge, and compare it to the other tracks. It is definitely different, in the bizzare lyrics (You'll walk the floor from door to door And pull out your peroxide hair) and highly charged guitars. You might recall that the Flying Burrito Brothers recorded this song, and kept it in the folk/rock repotoire-but something this nutty had to come from Nashville.
Mel Tillis, best known for his speech patterns, wrote and recorded this song in the 1960's. Took me about a year to find the original recording in the pre-internet days, but one can hear how Tillis made this song legendary, and the Long Ryders kept it alive. Excellent pedigree on this song with a salute to the Long Ryders for pulling it out of obscurity.
One Of The Great Lost LPs Of The '80s
For anyone who thought the '80s were hair bands and synthesizers, here's the rebuke. I bought this "album" on the strength of the psychedelic freakout that is "I Had A Dream". Upon further listening, I found an album that opened up my ears to the real promise of what country music could deliver. Yes, this is the beginnings of No Depression/Americana/Alt-Country. The Long Ryders, along with Jason and the Scorchers opened up the roads for acts like Wilco, Son Volt, Whiskeytown, Ol 97's and even Steve Earle, to trod down. AAMOF, this album is how you get from Gram Parsons/Sweetheart of the Rodeo-era Byrds to those aforementioned bands. If you need proof, check out "Ivory Tower". Personal faves are the aforementioned "I Had A Dream", "Ivory Tower", Never Got To Meet The Mom" and the stunning "Too Close To The Light". Definitely worth a listen. Eighteen years later and it still holds a special place in my collection.
Not their best
Find State of the Union, if you want their best stuff. This one is not bad, but does have some filler......
