Title: Ryan Adams is a Chameleon
Review: The Press may believe in Ryan Adams. I do not. He is just a good imitator and nothing more. I just wonder if all this hype is payola from his record label. It seems most of the record industry types are dying to have another marketable Neil Young or Gram Parsons. With the exception of his punk band the Patty Duke Syndrome, I have never heard anything original from him. They were a band that had some worthy ideas. Gold is contrived and so derivative it reeks of thievery. However, since he is playing music that is tried and true and radio friendly for the mindless masses to consume; perhaps he can become the major labels new marketable poster boy.
