Negative Positive
Title: Mud and Gold
Review: I looked forward eagerly to this tribute album but was ultimately disappointed. None of the cuts come close to the great man's own interpretations. Only Steve Earle and Delbert McClinton give acceptable renditions of 'Two Girls' and 'Pancho & Lefty' respectively. My advice would be to get the real thing in 'Live at the Old Quarter, Texas' or any of Townes' own (especially live) albums. This album was Mud to Townes' Gold, only this time Mr Mud didn't come out on top!
Is the review positive or negative?
