Buenas Noches From A Lonely Room

A country album! I'm not usually a country fan, but I don't dislike country either. Pretty whiny 80s country here I think. Not my favorite. Not loving it. The title track is kind of nice though. Not something I'd choose to listen to though I think. It's very stereotypical country. Maybe there's some "Seinfeld isn't funny" going on here but it's really not that interesting to me.

I’ve heard good Dwight Yoakam. This isn’t it.

Shite Hokum.

Lots to loathe with this one even if you like/tolerate this style of country unlike myself. There's the multi-song narrative arc of killing his lover because she cheated on him, the ode to "rebel pride" in I Sang Dixie, and the closing song about how he found religion. Hated so much about this even though the instrumentals weren't necessarily bad. 1 star.

Immediately hating this type of country sound but we still have 36+ minutes left. Worse cover of Home of the Blues. Cash's version is superior to this. God 80's country is the worst combo. And then add in some bible shit and it's pretty rough on the ears. This was probably a 2 until that Christian country song to end it. Terrible.

Crap music performed at an average level Crap

Country schmountry

Yikes

Country.

trash

Oh my god I could not listen to this dross! I tried believe me but it was hell for me! This is not music but torture, if I could give 0 stars I would!

Ça me donne le goût de me faire bâtir un garage, ramasser une vieille scrap pas chère pis la retaper dans mes temps libres en faisant jouer ça sur un p'tit radio de marde pis finalement me rendre compte que j'ai aucune estie de connaissance en mécanique, mettre le feu dans le char pis mourir dans le garage en espérant que le feu se répande dans toute la ville, puis de villes en villes jusqu'à couvrir la terre entière pour que jamais pus personne ait à entendre ça. D'la bonne musique pour le restaurant du Zellers. Oh guess what, ça existe pus, c'est mort. Tout comme aucune crisse de raison d'avoir à écouter ça avant de mourir. J'suis assez en tabarnak-là.

Find it hard to tell these country albums apart ngl

Over the last couple of years I've come to love a lot of country music. This album encapsulates why I thought I hated it in the first place.

Ass

I was enjoying this one until I started listening to the lyrics 🤦‍♀️

Wow! Everything I hate about Country music, all rolled up into one album! I've listened to around 300 albums on this list, and I think this is only the second time (including a few Country albums) that I stopped listening part way through. I try to be as objective as I can when listening to new/different stuff....but I just hated this.

Shit bsginnung, shit middle and extra shitty end. Must be a bad album, and a waste of the longest 30 minus ever. 0/5

Everything about this undersells how paint-by-numbers while vile it turns out to be. There is no recover from a ‘romantic’ song about murdering your partner.

Banjo MF

I feel like a could go into a music shop, pick a country album completely at random and get one of comparable quality. Poor production and almost sounds like parody 1.5*

Okay, nach 10 Sekunde is erste Lied galopiert hani scho denkt, dass de Dwight grad all Stereotype vom ganz klassische "Lonely rider bonfire linedance cowboy" abdeckt. Satire und übertriebni country verarschige würdet ned ah das level vo redneckiness und lederhosigkeit herecho wie de Herr Coboi. Und Obwohls s cover ja eigentlich scho ganz guet hett chöne priisgeh, hani weg em 88er Jahrgang, em Exotische Yoakam-Nachname und em chline hint as internationale mit em Buenas Noches öppis spannends erwartet. Oder hald öppis anders. Sicher ufjedefalls öppis bessers. Aber das isch au ned schwirig. Danke 1001albumsgenerator, dass du mir mini tüüfi, tüüfi abneigig gege cowboy-yehaa-country immer wider vom neue chasch ufzeige. Aber mit dem Album topts alles. Mit 30 sekunde into s erste lied und nomal en 5 sekündige versuech bimene andere bini ja eigentlich gar ned berechtigt das Album z bewerte, aber da git mer jedi Sekunde meh so e Abgrundtüüf schlechti luhne, dass ich mir das Album us selbstschutz ned han welle ahtueh. Und trotzdem chani mit voller überzüügig dehinder stah wenni dem lonely boy ih sim lonely room eis huufise fadegrad an chopf rüer.

Not for me

Someone please tell me this is a parody on country albums, not an actual country album? This would have been passable in the early '60s I suppose. Now, if you like all the clichés (sorry, style elements) of honky-tonk country including the themes, yodeling etc. and you don't mind if it feels like you've heard it all 1000 times before, then this may well be a 4 or a 5.

A must hear album? Sure, if you're a Promise Keeper.

I think as soon as I heard the twang in his voice I lost all empathy for whatever this man was going to sing about. I’m sure he is sad about something. I just don’t care to digest it.

2/10 I don't, I can't. I tried, made it to streets of Bakersfield. The fact that I made it that far got a two out of 10. 2-25-2025

Couldn’t get hooked

I’ve heard all the county I ever need to hear in my life

Good ol' Country music, complete with pedal steel guitar and fiddle. Can't stand this type of twanging Country music.

No me gusta el folk

Nope, can't do it. This is about as country as you can get, and it setting off every one of my bells. Nothing enjoyable for me here at all.

This is surely a joke, right?

Awful. All show and no go. Why do all country singers feel like they need to sing with that horrible twang.

Not for me

Affected insincere crap.

Ugh. THIS is what I get on Jan 1 2025? This isnt a good sign of things to come for this new year. This is a bad album with only one halfway good track and terrible lyrics throughout. 1/5

Country sucks.

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHAH!!!

You can put me in the country, but you can't put the country in me

I refer to my previous review of Merle Haggard’s I’m a Lonesome Fugitive, this all is the fault of the Pilgrim Fathers and puritan values. But I see a trend developing here - Lonely and lonesome!! I wonder why? 1/5 14/12/24

I’m not a fan of Country, I find it backwards and depressing

Is there a half star option?

This music reminds me of a deep countryside fair, with people in very weird clothes, plenty of raunchy games and a multitude of bad food. It's just not a music I will ever like, even if I try (and I tried).

There's like close to 50 Country albums on this list, and it's amazing how, with extremely rare standouts (like 4 albums), every single one sounds exactly the same and is the exact same level of complete unmemorability and tedium. It's like I've listened to the same album arranged in slightly different ways 50 times now. If you sent this book to aliens, they'd think that Nashville, Tennessee was a revered holy site.

Nope

If there’s one thing this album does, it’s remind you just how much you’ve heard all these country clichés before. And I mean really remind you. This 1988 album is a deep dive into a world of broken hearts, cheating lovers, and long nights spent alone in dive bars—and while that might sound familiar, Yoakam's ability to resurrect every classic country trope is truly something else. Whether or not it’s a good thing, though, is another story. It’s almost as if the music section took a country music manual and said, “Let’s make sure we hit every single page.” The result is something so comfortably familiar that it borders on predictable, but not in the "this is a classic" kind of way—in more of a "yep, I've heard this before" kind of way. Every song shuffles along, like you’re caught in a loop of honky-tonk bars you can’t escape. Buenas Noches From A Lonely Room doesn’t reinvent country music; it simply embraces everything country music has been for decades. And if you’ve spent any amount of time in this genre, you’ll find that the clichés here aren’t exactly groundbreaking—they’re more like that dusty old jukebox that just keeps playing the same songs.

Turns out when he doesn’t have her, he really does go insane.

No no no just no. This exactly the reason I've never like country

yikes

Musiquinha boa, mas queria na voz de Sandy e Junior.

sem comentários..... country mal do mundo

I really cannot stand this type of whiney country music. And could do bear the thought of listening to the whole album. I guess it must be considered good for this type of album, but it's a nope from me. Give me Johnny Cash over this type of country every time. 1/5

This is some moderately good country instrumentals ruined by having lyrics and a country singer. The title track is the most tolerable.

What your grandma listens to. Also, a surprising number of the songs are about killing his wife. Best song: What I Don't Know Worst song: One More Name

Felt like a wild west fever dream, nothing like some upbeat country while singing about killing his wife and her bf. Best song: Streets of Bakersfield Worst song: Buenas Noches From a Lonely Room (She Wore Red Dresses)

These country albums really just are not for me.

I hate country twang. Cry in someone else’s ear.

We got both kinds - country AND western!

Utter shite

"in the land of cotton / old times there / ain't near as rotten / as they are / on this damned old LA street" -- Woof. That song really pissed me off.. Had to check my judgement.. Take some deep breaths and not just stop the album and write a review just saying FUCK DIXIE, FUCK REBEL PRIDE. Ugh. Does walking the streets of Bakersfield make you an asshole? Anyway, in other news, the drywall contractor working on my office just walked by and said "Oh you're listenin to the good stuff today!"

No

*yawns* *stretches* Plinky plunky fiddley wibbly tales of woe.

Just awful, Dixie bullshit

det här är inte bra

Vilken jävla sliskig sörja.

Another total waste of time!

country..... enough said

Not a fan of country music. This is no exception.

Turns into weird Christian country. Didn't like that.

While I do appreciate the talented musicians, this is not my jam. When I tell people that I don’t like country music this is the type of twangy voice that comes to mind. This album in particular covers many of the stereotypes of country music - drinking, being left by his woman, someone getting shot…..it’s too much. Pass.

HAHAHHAHA THIS IS A JOKE RIGHT. This actually sounds like what an AI would make if you asked it to make a boring country album. The moment it started I knew I was in trouble.

Sad songs for sad cowboys

Look it’s not that bad but like nothing here stands out, the vibes are super fucking right wing lame, and his voice ain’t that great. The accordion is cool and there’s a couple nice songs. 3/10 I really can’t decide on 1 or 3 stars but the bad taste of “I sang Dixie” and knowing the people I know who’d like it is helping me make my choice

I'll save you the trouble, Dwight got dumped, and he wasted that no-good lyin' cheatin' whore. This seemed to perk him up. Some reviewers mention they like the Mexican influence in this album, I say, if you want Tejano, go listen to proper Tejano. 🤠

Shut up man. This is the worst kind of Country and Western IMHO. Extremely plodding, every song has an undercurrent of toxic masculinity, and the actual musicality is limited AF. There are one or two nicer moments, but for a 36 minute album, it doesn't half drag.

E ainda tem mais discos de country. Conheci e só.

Vocals are pretty ropey, lyrics are worse. I'm not a massive country fan at the best of times, but this isn't even good country. And then he goes painfully cringey religious on the last track. 1/5.

I couldn't find anything to recommend this. The covers are bad, the originals are worse. A kind of Country Karaoke. All the tropes without any of the wit or wisdom. Awful.

Too twee, too twang. Ta ta.

Nope.

This stinks. Is he a monster?

gross

Greatly disliked this misogynistic claptrap

I can’t even I couldn’t stand more than 10min

A song about shooting his lover in the head because she found somebody else… How lovely. Next time shoot yourself, Mr. Yoakam, so we don’t have sit through more of your terrible music.

Good have mercy on me, I just don’t get any of it.

Some silver spoon country, no soul or heart in it. Lyrics were pretty bad

Not for me. 1/5

From the first note Dwight sang and I heard that classic country twang, I knew I was going to hate this album. It sounded like pretty standard country music from my limited understanding of the genre, and as such getting through the album was a struggle for me.

Gear: Dunu SA6 Mix: ja okay von mir aus Musik: bidde nich Wertung: 🎻/5

Cool western tunes to listen to in a bar. Or a saloon

what's blud yapping about

This album was perfectly crafted for a bunch of fat white dudes eating queso in a Tex-Mex restaurant in LA (Lower Alabama). It somehow balances cultural misappropriation and misogyny in a perfect blend accented with just a hint of Grizzly chew. On the track "What I don't Know": "What I don't know might get you killed / Death row in prison don't look half as bad" to the girl he thinks is cheating. Or on "Buenas Noches": "In the dark morning silence / I placed the gun to her head" for the girl who decided to date someone else. WTAF? Why not go full racist on "I Sang Dixie": "Said way down yonder / In the land of cotton / Old times there / Ain't near as rotten / As they are / On this damned L.A. street"? The land of cotton. Are you fucking serious right now? Oh crap, I forgot the veiled anti-semitism in the opening line of another: "I had to buy back damn near everything I own / From a little man whose name is Saul / And has a lot of money to loan". Oh, I see what you did there. Lovely anti-union sentiments just as a footnote. Even for the cheeseball era of country, this stands out as perfectly atrocious. Would not listen again and do not recommend. How do I do less than 1 star for this asshole?

Countrymusik ist nicht meins. Countrymusik in dieser klassischen Urform wie auf diesem Album. Kaum Varianten, eher langweilig.

Country. I don't really like country music for 2 reasons. The first is the music which I generally find boring and repetitive, the second are the lyrics. Some reviews had mentioned the problematic lyrics on some of the tracks and they were correct. Two songs about killing your (possibly unfaithful) girlfriend/wife are two too many. Then there is the one where he steals money from a fellow inmate. But fear not in the last track he professes that he is a good christian boy really. No you are fucking not, you are a fucking hypocrite. And this sort of sums up most country music lyrics to me, they are utterly fake. I just don't believe that most country singers themself believe a word they are singing. Without the murderous lyrics that would mean three stars but as it is only one.

Going from good albums back to the muck is tonally jarring. Didn't land.

No

I don't know if this is where modern country truly got its roots, but it has a lot of the worst hallmarks of it, so I'm pointing my barrel it's way anyway. Did not enjoy this in the slightest. Dwight's voice was pretty damn annoying and none of the songs hooked me. Once again, there are like 10 albums absent from this list that deserve the spot more than this record.

Melkein pitäisi antaa ekstratähti siitä että jaan näköjään syntymäpäivän Dwight Yoakamin kanssa. Mutta vain melkein. Ei tällaista kantrijollotusta kestä.

I’m so sorry but I can’t

Totally forgettable. Hit most if not all of the country music stereotypes (though not sure I heard reference to a hound dog).

There is definitely country music worth listening to, but not this album. I'm reminded of Mars Attacks, Slim Whitman's Indian Love Song - that album is on the verge of destroying humanity.

Don’t know him but I don’t like him. Far too country for me. Kind of enjoyed the Mexican elements but his tone is so annoying we can add this to the one star club.

Country and western……. Just not my chaps and stetsons. Predictable line dancing fodder.

i really just dont care i really really just dont care its so difficult to listen to i really just dont care

I will never “get” country music. I’ve enjoyed some here and there, but I can’t understand how some people straight up live or die by that kind of music. And I don’t boast about my intuition for no reason. Because I saw this album this morning, and was able to tell from a mile away that I wasn’t going to like this. I couldn’t have predicted just how much I wouldn’t like it though. This is bad. That’s the least that I can say. When it comes to country music, there is a certain kind of very generic and poppy country that I really hate. And this falls in line with that. If you were to look up “free no copyright country background music” on YouTube, you would probably get something equivalent to this. It’s a total slog, and completely mind numbing. You couldn’t pay me to try and pick things that are different from song to song. The only mildly interesting piece of music here is the title track, because it differs slightly from the sound of the rest of the album. My biggest gripe with this is really the singer. This is gonna sound horribly mean, and all respect to this guy, because god knows I can’t sing the way he does, but this would be so much better if he just shut up. If this was an instrumental album, it would be bumped up a couple points. The root of all bad country music for me is almost always the vocalist. And on this, he hits these really awkward twangy high notes that grind my gears. If you don’t like country music, don’t listen to this. But even if you do like country music, you still shouldn’t listen to this. Rating: 2/10

get out of here.

si ponen otro aburrido album country denuncio penalmente al administrador de este sitio

Fairly unremarkable, pretty generic country music. Just not my genre

Not a fan

ew

no country please no no no

he sang about shooting his girlfriend if he caught her cheating… i think i need to do a better listen of some of these singers (male) and just give them 1 stars or 0 if possible cause singing about violence against women will never be art or good. so from here on out, any rampant misogynist and sexist songs, just straight stop listening and the least amount of stars.

Ow, no need

"Oh we got both kinds. Country and Western". And they're both shit

I was going to give it an extra star for being short, but I hate country.

I mostly remember Dwight Yoakam from Panic Room... he plays a good villain, was kinda fucked up. As for this album, not my thing, found it boring, didn't need to listen before I die.

Þetta er bara country plata sem ég á erfitt með að njóta....

Country. I swear to god it all sounds the same and I cannot STAND it.

What's next now? Garth-f*cking-Brooks? All too often, C&W ends up being a self-indulgent genre, both musically and lyrically. And if you add bland eighties production values to it, the result becomes a cringe-worthy listening experience. Hard pass. I'll stick to Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson and not bother about the rest. Next, please. Number of albums left to review: 371 Number of albums from the list I find relevant enough to be mandatory listens: 284 Albums from the list I *might* include in mine later on: 149 Albums from the list I won't include in mine (many others are more essential to me): 203 (including this one)

Not for me, country isn't my jam

I didn't need to hear this before I die.

1.5/5

After listening I could not for the life of me remember a single melody or phrase except for 'Home of the Blues' (by Cash).

Horrible

Ugh nope too cliche country for me. Less than a minute in and he was already talking about his truck.

Gare country, saai

I'm sure some people like it, but I hate country music.

Tänker på när jag var med farfar på roadtrip i västra USA. I Cody, Illinois, åt vi middag, säkert en steak, medan den lokala countrymannen spelade på scen. Med sig hade han sin dotter, som sjöng otroligt vacker country. Där och då älskade jag country, jag älskade det familjära, hur dottern vuxit upp i samma lokal och sett sin pappa underhålla grannarna. Jag TÄNKER på den stunden när jag lyssnar på Dwight Yoakam, men jag KÄNNER inte riktigt samma sak. Detta ger mig endast en förnimmelse om vad country kan vara på rätt plats, vid rätt tillfälle. Tyvärr kommer dessa tillfällen väldigt sällan. Nu, när jag befinner mig långt bort från västra USA, långt bort från cowboy boots, rare steaks och milslånga vägar i öknen, känns countryn bara förljugen och barnslig. Jag KAN inte gilla detta, hur mycket jag än försöker placera mig i rätt sinnesstämning. Jag vet att det kan finnas något där, en värme - en moderskärlek - men den finns tyvärr inte i Dwight Yoakam. Bästa låt: Home of the Blues, men mest för att det är en Johnny Cash-låt.

How is this supposed to be on here? I'm guessing because it's traditional country in an era of Reagan-infused-country, but that doesn't make this good. Were this an album from the 50s or early 60s I'd give it some wiggle room, but this is the same year as Teenage Riot, for God's sake, Havwe some edge, something interesting, ANYTHING. It's a two star album, but this gets a one on principle. I will say the instrumentals are nice.

Don't like the singing, don't like the uninspired bass and drum, don't like the same-sounding melodies. There is really nothing about this album that I like I guess.

Christ not more C&W, please make it stop.

Straightforward country album - even as background music simply too annoying to give anything more than 1 star.

37 minutes too long. I don’t know what this cover is supposed to be. Whatever it is I hate it. Too classy for me.

do not like this type of country at all

Hillbilly bullshit

Based on this album, it seems like country music has been getting worse with time instead of better. The sound is very generic, and the storytelling is nonexistent. Most of the songs are some variation of "I love my woman/my woman cheated or left me", then there is one happy song about leaving his woman and her being sad for a change, one song about how the countryside is better than the city, and one obligatory song about God. Come on.

Someone could give me a revolver with three bullets and I could shoot all three country fans in existence: I just hated this album. Like don't get me wrong as country goes it wasn't awful but it just drove me made and I didn't enjoy it one bit. It ain't anything like a country album which may be enjoyable due to singing along to one song but this just sounded like the deep south and I don't want to experience that again.

Its shit, really struggled with this

Look, I love some Johnny Cash albums. I can have fun listening to Loretta Lynn and Dolly Parton. But this album came across to me as a boring, vanilla, and uninspired set of songs. Maybe it means something to someone. Perhaps people fell in love while some of these songs were playing in the background. Maybe a couple of artists listened to it and decided to form a band. I do not know. What I know is that I don’t like it.

Ja, gute Nacht, sei mir nicht böse, wenn ich dich in dem room weiter alleine lasse. 🤮

YeeeeeeHawwwwww. Not really. shows the US influence on this list that this is even being considered what awful twee but also boring music.

fuck off.

If I ever lose my hearing, I will see the silver lining in never hearing a Dwight Yoakam song again

Musica de cowboy corno

Þessi týpa af köntríi fer alveg óendanlega í taugarnar á mér. Hjálpar ekki til þegar textar fjalla um að myrða konuna sem vildi þig ekki.

🥱 had some cool Latin music inspired moments but that’s all I can really say I liked abt it

Country. Not my bag.

This isn't even one of the 1001 best country albums.

boring...

Townes Van Zandt, Johnny Cash, Hank Snow, Emmylou Harris, Willie Nelson, Marty Robbins, Johnny Horton, Ray Price, Dolly Parton, Hank Williams... They're great country artists, aren't they?

Country

hating country music isn’t a very original sentiment but come on man

demasiado yanqui red neck para mi gusto, la musica country no me va

As soon as the album cover loaded, my first though was "Surely I have to draw the line somewhere." To my credit, I made it over a minute into the first song.

My friend was obsessed with Dwight when we were children, it isn't this album, but this transported me right back to that moment. I am not a big fan of country, so sorry Mr. Yoakam, this isn't my cup of tea. Also, those lyrics about killing your girl....um, big no.

This is a no from me Dawg (Dwight)

Getting very bored of these overproduced 80s country albums which sold millions of copies to a very select and limited audience of godbothering inbreds and nobody else. Yeehaw second amendment let's shoot up a school crap for idiots.

This really is awful. I know this guy is considered by many a National Treasure but these are insipid 80s marshmallow songs. It's almost laughable how cliched these are. I would be embarrassed found listening to this- I told my kids it was for the 1001 albums.........

Twangy tripe. Sure the musicianship is strong, but I just can’t take that… twangy vocal. And why not add a few yodel breaks just to get it deep under the skin. Dear lord this was hard to get through.

Not my thing. Thought "I Hear You Knockin'" was the best of it.

Literally name checks a truck in the first verse. Absolutely not. This is trash, complete and total trash.

gross

Where country music went to die.

stay lonely, pal

Tha fuck is this?!? Nothing triggers me like drawl. Please just STFU and let me hear the band. OK, for sure, this music makes me wretch. To each his own, but this? Fuck no. So disappointed, I honestly did not spend too much time here. Just skipping along before I broke down. Then a necessary palate cleanser (just about anything). This generator is one devious bitch.

I don't like country. I'm sure it's a fine example of the genre, but that genre is awful.

this is the honkiest, tonkiest album I've ever heard and it ain't for me.

Country music. Not my style.

This was a difficult listen. The songs were slow and uninteresting, and I found it hard to get through the entire album. I didn't have any favorite tracks, as I didn't enjoy any of the songs on the album. Overall, I would give the album 1 out of 5 stars. It's not one that I would recommend to anyone, and it's an example of why some people dislike country music. I won't be listening to it again.

Screw you list. I win! I finally won! It took us 500 albums but for once you're a loser. This is no Dolly. This is no Willie Nelson. This is none of the 60s country that's actually a bit decent. Doesn't even have any creative spins like the k.d. lang or Lucinda Williams records had. Nope. This is 40 minutes of pure honky tonk horseshit. Unoriginal and boring, neither the singer nor the band players sound they like a give a shit, and the lyrics are lame as could be. Could it get worse? Yes, at the very least this is true to form. Half the pop country you see on the charts since the 90s is much much worse. But that doesn't stop me from calling this irredeemable and of no value at all. I don't care if you throw an accordion in there. The two songs I was able to bear the most: What I Don't Know, Home of the Blues (probably cause my patience got sick after the 4th song)

Financial problems, infidelity, revenge, alcoholism, God, guns, southern pride, going to jail, and feeling down and out. Ahh, the seemingly eternal themes of country music. To me, this was awful.

This country Music is killing me

Guy does a nice version of Elvis's Suspicious Minds. Sorry it wasn't on this album because I would have had a song I liked. To me, sounds like he's whining throughout and songs seemed to run together. No favorite song. Would not recommend. A 1 rating for me

couldnt listen.too country.

Итак, на дворе 1988-ой год. К этому моменту уже появилось множество жанров и поджанров музыки, отжили свой век ярко и ушли на покой. Были выпущены гениальные и легендарные альбомы, которые поражают изобретательностью до сих пор. А что кантри? А кантри осталось кантри. Этот альбом - это, наверно, самое стереотипное кантри, которое можно использовать для пародии жанра. Именно это всплывает в моей голове, когда я слышу слово "кантри". Это несложные гитарные мелодии, незамысловатые типовые партии других инструментов и вокал. Ох этот вокал...Если некоторые кантри-альбомы я мог похвалить за вокал, то здесь настолько типичный вокал, что ты снова попадаешь при прослушивании в ощущение пародии. Возможно, это была постметаирония 1988-ого года, но что делает этот альбом в списке - я не знаю. Заслуженные 2 из 10.

I guess country was inevitable

Sweet Jesus a shocker

Oh dear LOOOOORD God might not want me holding onto him after I've sat and dragged myself through this painful album. In what fresh HELL is this a top 1001 album to listen to before you die?? This is the album for after you die when you arrive in hell...

Well it is country and some of the songs have a touch of Mariachi music but there is no singing in Spanish. I would prefer it to be all Mariachi music. I suffered through it. There is no need to listen to it again or really in the first place.

This project has opened my eyes to the wide variety of country music that there is out there for me to hate.

Ah, another opportunity for me to figure out why I hate most country music so much. I think it's the singing, the whiny voice. All I can think is 'fucking GET OVER IT'. Musically this wasn't that bad, but good god just sing normally!

Too American

Aika rajuu musaa… Country ass music! Onhan tässä jotain aika hiekkasta menoo mutta ei tää nyt ihan potkase. Ehkä pysyttelen Cashis ja Hank Williamsissa. 1/5

Terrible. Whiney crybaby.

Twangy country. Nope F

I don’t do country. I did not listen.

Not listening to this for the sake of my mental health.

lame af 2/10, I liked the accordion bits but the whole thing was just so annoying

Well, that's just really crappy, isn't it? Egotistical, nihilistic, misogynist, sad-sack, crooner bullshit. This doesn't need to exist let alone be on anyone's "best-of" list.

Nope nope nope. Listened to this hillbilly twit earlier this year then blocked Spotify from playing him. Just nope.

No

First country album on my list and the first 1 star review, just not the music for me.

I hate country, I tried but couldn't make it through the first song

Didn't like the lyrics, or the genre, or the same old same old country sob stories drawled out ad infinitum. Production seemed fine but that doesn't redeem it. Spent most of the time rolling my eyes and checking whether it was about to finish

I would have accepted Guitars Cadillacs on account of Terminator 2, but this one?

Oh god no. Not country.

Its a country album, and I don't like country.

meh

This is the exact sort of country nonsense I can’t stand

Simply grating. Any subtlety in here passed me by.

Country meh

Dit soort pure country is echt niks voor mij. Wat een ongelofelijke zeikmuziek! Na een paar nummers afgezet. Exit!

Yikes......

Not great Country

First album I couldn't make it al the way through

If this album in any way contributed to Yoakam’s career in a manner that led to him crossing paths with Billy Bob Thornton so he could eventually be cast in SLING BLADE… then it was well worth the experience of disinterest I had listening to it. The mariachi Bakersfield tune was okay, I guess? Yoakam if you got ‘em!

Hard Pass. Not even remotely interested in this album/style/artist/etc...

1.5 - mostly bland and boring. not my thing. 0.5 for I Sang Dixie which is ok

Next album please I’ll not lie, I didn’t listen to all of this but I’m giving it one star anyway just so poor Muddy isn’t bottom of the pile

I really don't like that twangy voiced country stuff. For me to like nything country it has to be pretty spectacular. I can't get through this, it's hurting my soul.

Dwight Yoakam was probably the first artist I ever hated. I listened to a lot of country radio when "Pocket of a Clown" came out, and I couldn't change the station fast enough whenever I heard his voice. This album did nothing to sway me. Best track: Send Me the Pillow.

1988. Key Songs: I Got You, I Sang Dixie

This guy literally jumped
