What you are calling hilbilly music is pure American old timey music, including standards and ballads that have been staples in the diet of any music lover since Woody Guthrie's time. Read the liner notes for Blue Country Heart. Shit, with a title like that and a lineup featuring the top Nashville players of the past few decades, what's the mystery? You know what you're getting.I just don't understand this criticism of an album that really is beyond criticism, aurally and musically. Jorma's voice is a mellow vehicle for these old tunes and the musicians do them proud. The recording is excellent and the arrangements are fine.
I don't like apple pie, but I see that as my own flaw, not hillbilly culinary.
