The best country album of 2021
5
By J D Vespo
Charley Crockett delivers an emotional masterpiece. This album is an expert’s blend of different styles, which Crockett sums up best and Gulf & Western. Like its predecessor (Welcome to Hard Times 2020), this album is witty, charming, and extraordinarily powerful. The greatness of country music’s last true “outlaw” is on full display as he tunnels the listener through tales of heartbreak, beauty, and pain. Then on the titular track, Crockett calls out the Nashville country music machine whose penchant for turning out carbon copies who sing about Miller lite, trucks, and girls is so sharply juxtaposed but the simple (but never simplistic) poetic verse of Crockett. Overall, this is the best country album of 2021, and no matter how much Nashville doesn’t like it, the greatness of Charley Crockett is on full display.

Highly recommend listening to this and any other of Charley’s Albums. The man has a unique sound and style that is unforgettable and leaves you wanting more. And a crying shame Apple Music only listed his new album under “Country” and not with “All” new music.
Great purchase!
