Any of you already listened to this album?
I didn't know anything about her music until I heard of the collaboration between her and Jack White on this album.
For those of you who don't know her:
Loretta Lynn is one of the classic country singers.
During the '60s and '70s, she ruled the charts, racking up over 70 hits as a solo artist and a duet partner.
At the age of 70 she's still able to make some incredible music.
The songs vary from melancholic (Trouble on the line, Miss being mrs.) to rock (Have mercy)
Even people who hate country music definitely should give this one a try.
You won't get disappointed!



I'm bored with the valleys and bored by the peaks. So I bought a ticket to the Pixies

Let's go burn ole Nashville down
Set it all aflame
BBQ the greedheads
Made country weak and tame
Burn burn Nash Vegas
Char it's rancid soul
Burn burn Branson too
Make a big black hole

Country music is killing itself
Tryin' to be what it ain't
Garth Brooks sells as many as Manilow
Lee Greenwood is a saint
Burn burn Jimmy Bowen
Damn your puny soul
Burn burn Jimmy Bowen
Country can't be sold

Any fool can wear a hat
And not move when they play
But the lonesome howl of the white trash wolf
Can't be heard today
Burn burn the fake cowboys
The Vegas showbiz shit
Burn burn Branson too
Sold your soul for a hit

Let's go burn ole Nashville down
Burn it to the ground
Let's go burn ole Nashville down
Save the country sound
Burn burn soulless swine
Crossover igit-pukes
Burn burn lyin' cheaters
Country don't have flutes


(Mojo Nixon)

I think I started a thread on this after it came out. I really like the disc. Jack White did a great job, especially insisting that they return to her songwriting instead of the nashville 'hit machine' types who haven't got a clue.

I bought this album on a whim. Mostly because of Jack White.

Great album. The instrumentation is really tasty on it, and her vocals are good for her age.


Just quit a cult / going through withdrawal
