Acoustic Breakdown Gone Country

by Hannah Dudley


Country Music: A way of life to many but completely underrated in the UK. I'm going to help change that here as I review and introduce country classics old and new, filtering the trite from the truly brilliant and dispelling your notions that country is corny. A lot of it is, but even then it can be great.

Why Do I Love Ryan Adams?

Okay, it's pretty simple yet devastatingly complex - a bit like the man himself. He's an undeniable genius when it comes to his music, the diverse range of styles and stories he can merge himself into and on top of that, he's an affable hard-ass country boy, which has it's own unremitting level of appeal.

This video is from some French promo for his recent release, Easy Tiger. The song is 'Goodnight Rose' - it's not the best perfomrance I've ever seen from him but coupled with the insightful and at times hillarious interview that comes afterwards, this is one Ryan Adams show you simply cannot miss. And for those less familiar with Ryan - it's a nice introduction into his soul.

Enjoy.
