Title: The pleasure goes on forever...
Review: The knock on Joe Ely records has been that compared to his live performances, his studio products seem a bit flat. I agreed with that assessment in regard to his recent "Twistin' in the Wind" CD, but I love "Letter to Laredo." I think every selection works, and fits well with the others. These kind of songs clearly come off better in studio versions than they would in the roadhouses. Joe just found the right songs, the right style, the right help, even the right order of the tunes, on this project. For my taste, it's the best record I've heard from him since 1978's "Honky Tonk Masquerade." That's just my opinion, and I have not heard every record, or seen Joe live, although he often performs in Lubbock, just 100 miles up the road from me. I'm a fan, however, just the same. If you like Joe at all, I cannot imagine you won't love "Letter to Laredo."
