5.0 out of 5 stars
A Master at work, July 29, 2008
This review is from: Took Down & Put Up (Audio CD)
Larry Cordle is perhaps the most under appreciated writer/performer that no one has ever heard of. Although this album does not break any new ground, creatively speaking, it never the less is an excellent addition to Larry's catalog and a must have for his fans.
For those who have never listened to the artist perform his own work, Cordle's style could be described as a fusion of country and bluegrass with overtones of the blues and a good dose of attitude. His lyrics are often clever and well crafted, sometimes poignant, but always touching on his genius at turning the memorable phrase that makes country and bluegrass so affecting.
If one were to purchase this album I'd be willing to bet that they would then look up Larry Cordle's other recordings to add to the collection. Personally, I never tire of his music as I sometimes do with other artists. This album is no exception. Buy it!
