Dollar ReviewWhen I first heard "The Dollar" on the radio, I was floored. Not only by the touching lyrics, but also by the traditional sound. I could tell that the guy singing it had a deep love for traditional country music, and was someone who stayed true to his roots. After listening to this album, I still say all that.
THE DOLLAR is a great traditional country record. Sure, there are the contemporary "redneck anthems"--"Rebelicious," "Redneck Side of Me," even to an extent "Keepin' Up With the Jonesin"--but they are still better than a lot of their cousin songs. Johnson's true country gift, however, comes across in other ways. The enjoyable "Flying Silver Eagle" is one of the countriest songs I've heard in a long time ("I couldn't put my past behind me, so I put it in a song"). "She's All Lady" is a touching tribute to the woman at home, and "Back to Carolina" is a powerful number. "My Saving Grace" is an ode to the power of blood over alcohol ("Daddy passed out with his demons, Mama passed the offering plate...Daddy kept the Devil off my back by taking up His time"). The CD ends with the stirring and inspirational gosel number "Lead Me Home."
Jamey Johnsom, from all appearances, seems the direct musical descendent of George Jones, Hank Jr., Merle Haggard, Waylon, and others--he's a traditional-leaning artist with what may come off as attitude, but what is really, in fact, simple honesty. THE DOLLAR is one of the best country albums I've heard in a long time. Yes, yes, he's the guy who co-wrote "Honky Tonk Badonkadonk," but for true die-hard country fans, Johnson is more likely to be remembered for the tunes he recorded here...and any more he gets the chance to record in his career. His voice is undeniably country, his writing skills are formidable, and his taste in traditional country music is unwavering. God--and the music industry--willing, Jamey Johnson will have a long career ahead of him. Lord knows, he's the right man to give country music a much-needed injection of traditionalism.Dollar OverviewJohnson signed to BNA Records in April of 2005. It wasnt long after, that he and producer Buddy Cannon were in the studio cutting songs for his debut album, The Dollar.With the upcoming release of The Dollar, years of hard work and persistence pursuing a dream, are coming to reality. This has been my dream since I picked up that first guitar when I was a kid. You know, Montgomery is only about 4hours from Nashville by car, but by guitar, its about 5 years. Sony & BMG. 2006
