Release Notes:
--------
Over a decorated 25-year career, country music stalwart Dwight Yoakam has never
toed the Nashville line, instead demonstrating an adventurous appetite for power
pop, rockabilly, soul and even punk rock. With a sound far closer to the Flying
Burrito Brothers than, say, Alabama, Yoakam has sometimes lagged behind his
contemporaries in terms of sheer commercial metrics, but his creative
wanderlust has earned him a large and diverse constituency of loyal fans. It is
unlikely that many of them will find themselves disappointed by ? Pears,?his
strong new collection, which is his first full-length album since 2007 and one
of his finest overall.
On the infectious opener, 揟ake Hold Of My Hand,?Yoakam sounds like a
country-fried Roy Orbison, wrapping his rich tenor around a romantic plea that
feels closer to vintage Sun Records than anything on new country radio. A
fantastic rip through the standard 揇im Lights, Thick Smoke?brings the anarchic
feel of similar stylistic shape-shifters NRBQ and wouldn抰 feel out of place on
an Old 97抯 record. Yoakam is equally adroit in tear-in-your-beer weeper mode ?
the moving, soul-inflected break-up ballad 揑t抯 Never Alright?features the
kind of subtly clever chorus that Merle Haggard has made a legendary career out
of: 揟hey say it gets better/Well I guess that it might/But even if it抯
better/It抯 never alright.?It抯 brilliant, but something of an outlier on this
largely rambunctious and celebratory album. Approaching 60, Yoakam has both
deepened with his vintage and somehow managed to lose nothing off his formidable
fastball.
