About Nashville, Vol 1: Tear the Woodpile Down

For anyone who cherishes the sound of country music from the '60s—when Merle Haggard, Johnny Cash, Buck Owens, Tammy Wynette, George Jones, and others defined the sound with pedal steel guitars and harmonies that made their heartbreaking tales of the poor life ever more poignant—Marty Stuart's music should feel like a homecoming. Stuart played alongside many of his heroes and learned the music's essence firsthand. His traditional take on country reflects those musical values as he relays tales of heartache, loneliness, and even murder. Fred Neil's "The Lonely Kind" is transformed into a pure country tale, while the classic tune "Holding on to Nothing" is given an inspired performance that essentially sounds like a better-recorded version of the song known by Dolly Parton. "Truck Driver's Blues" breaks out the mandolin. "A Song of Sadness," featuring Lorrie Carter Bennett, recalls a classic country duet. Hank Williams III joins Stuart for a duet of Hank Williams Sr.'s "Pictures from Life's Other Side."
