Not my kind
Country for me is either love it or hate it, and this is unfortunately a hate. This is the country music I grew up not liking, very radio country. Worst album I've gotten so far, and only a half hour I checked how much was left several times.
Would like this if doing a road trip across America, stopping at a roadside bar, dusty and rolling tumble weed, when ordering ice cool beer someone slips a dime into the juke box and this music comes on. But none of that is true and in my world C&W has no relevance at all. 1/5 5/10/24
I hated the fingernails song. This kind of country is not for me.
I don’t vibe with this
1.5
This is the first time thus far that I am changing my rating based on something that wasnt just my opinion of the musical parts. I was firm on thinking it had been a 2-ish experience until "I don't cut my fingernails so it clicks when I play the piano" was spoken. I found that so gross that I had to change the score Sometimes I wonder if I am just doing this entire 1001 albums challenge wrong. Are other people also listening to the entire album from start to end? I've read that some people just listen up until the end of the first chorus before going on to the next song to get a 'general idea' of how they find the song. Is everyone doing this? Albums like this are genuinely unlistenable and youre telling me almost 11.000 people have listened to it? You are nuts.
yee-naw
Awful
Pelo menos a maioria dos discos de country duram pouco mais de 30 minutos. São repetitivos, mas não cansam.
The kind of country everyone hates.
I disliked this sufficiently that I deleted each song from my history as soon as it played.
Nicht meine Richtung
Blegh
I do not understand the appeal of this music. I was skeptical going in, and with the few bars thought, “Huh. Maybe this will surprise me!” But just a few moments later, my hopes were dashed. I just can’t stomach this type of country music: twangy, and somehow simultaneously boring and annoying.
Nope. Not my style.
Nothing to recommend
I hated it.
No
Gear: Hifiman Arya Artwork: "»StolzFÜSSER!«, rief ein älterer Hobbit aus dem hinteren Teil des Zeltes dazwischen. Er hieß natürlich Stolzfuß, und zwar mit Recht, denn er hatte große Füße mit außerordentlich dichtem Pelz, und beide lagen auf dem Tisch." Mix (2022 Remaster): heißer Scheiß - aber nicht von der guten Sorte Musik: "Oh Wait. You're Serious? Let Me Laugh Even Harder!" Wertung: 💅(💅)/5
Nope. Farm emo bad.
Standard country music
Colling the eating part… not give hoot about.. bulking... Remember drinking.. let us drink for to morrow we shall die.. Jack stop.. In Baltimore they made up how to make gas from coal.. incredible.. The nightlife possibilities.. not quite neon light level.. still day in the middle of night I drink, I drink, and I boy Drink…. I like.. Barman interrupts. Baltimore gasworks.. The rectangular, 19 century buildings are set on semi-coursed stone foundations, and are topped with monitor and gable roofs. The buildings exhibit a recessed wall plane behind paired brick pilasters and corbelled brick cornices and oculus openings set within their gables. The Office is notable for its delicate wood louvered dormer with a sunburst- ornamented tympanum… You have seen the main building of Equitable Gas Works.. You can't miss it if you visit Baltimore…. I mean.. Important evidence of the stature of the manufactured gas industry. Never understood buildings.. bartender man… that's why I moved here.. get a place from here.. good land.. they said.. Jack.. You are so mope-eyed, move out and experience innovation.. it's not here.. The gas won't travel by rail.. …..Villi läntinen manner jonka aroille nousivat likaisimmat kuppilat maan päällä. Kun emomaassa juotiin sateettomina päivinä teetä ulkona, vei kuumuus tilanomistajat pimeän saluunan nurkkaan nauttimaan viskistä. Auringon sykkivä lämpö sääti joka päivä ulkoilulle rajoja, jotka sisällä varjossa, kylmässä kaksikerroksisen talon siveellisemmässä alakerrassa onneksi unohtuivat. Sisällä kävi kylmä viima. Kuitenkin, pelkkä auringonvalon läsnäolo oli muistutus loppukesän epämiellyttävästä paahteesta - toisille näky punaisesta sirpaleisesta maasta, joka ei kanna satoa, jonka vilja kuihtuu hitaasti. Päivän muuttuessa illaksi ja petroliliekin valaistessa miesten viinan litkutusta, unohtuu muun mantereen edistys. Kaasu vallankumoistaa valaistuksen, tehden yöstä päivän, ainakin suurissa kaupungeissa. Jack lähtee, mutta Collin jää. Jotain siinä lämpimässä petrolilampussa on jota ei kirkkaat kaasulamput korvaa. Suomessakin Häkäpönttöautoilla pöröteltiin… Hyvä kiinnittää tähän huomiota välillä kun unohtuu faktat fiktiosta…korvaamaton väline kun puhutaan sota-ajan autoilusta.. Häkäpönttö...harmittaisi perkeleesti jos suomen autoilun historia olisi katkennut 1944……. 1970s loppupuoli kantri.. Yhdistää 1960 luvun countryn.. 1980s countryyn… Ikuisesti kiitollinen albumille.. Ja katkeamattomalle suomen siviili autoilun historialle joka kesti sodan…
Bad
country, 1978 -> 1
me tan viendo la cara de granjero yankee o q?? final listen: estaba esperando a que terminara. los 38 minutos más largos de mi vida
Not my cup of tea. I only started the one song and gave up.
Sigh
Why did I have to hear this before I die?
Too much country
I just cannot get into Country, would be 2* except "I'll be your fool" which I really couldn't stand
no.
Horrendous, it would get a zero if that was an option
I can't believe I was actually expected to listen to this awfulness
В Стара Загора като се кажело за нещо "Това е много кънтри" значело ще е мега тъпо :D
shove it up yer bollocks.
Probably shit
Þetta gerir nákvæmlega ekkert fyrir mig.
I knew I was in for a slog with a title like 'Honky Tonk Masquerade'. I try to be an open church. I'm accepting of most musical styles ... but I do struggle with Country and Western. I got through the album. It's not my thing.
Jos olisin kuunnellu ajellessani Hiluxilla pohjois-pohjanmaalla oisin antanu viis tähteä
tähän larppiin mä en pysty
Hey, maar dit is echt kut zeg!
Good lord, no thanks
Trash
Hard no! Beyond not my thing. I heard he opened for The Clash on a few dates and was spit on and punks threw beer at him. I would have been one of those punks that would have thrown beer if I was at that show.
Fuck off. No more country. Let's be real here - NOBODY listens to country music. We should stop treating it like a major music genre. It makes a lot of money? It's a huge industry? Third most popular genre in America? Nope. All fake. Conspiracy. Money laundering. Paid actors. Thought this book was British. There's really no need to pretend you care about this, Robert Dimery.
Urgh. Country. I guess if you like country, this might not be irredeemable pap. Unfortunately, for normal people, this is irredeemable pap.
Hated this. Bottom 10 for me.
Music to tap all eleven of your toes to 👍🏾
If I'm at your place and you unironically put this stuff on, I will straight up think less of you as a human being. It's vapid, uninspiring and there is absolutely nothing at stake here. Unless, of course, you are lighting up the dancefloor with your honky tonk - in which case, carry on!
Ah man, this is pretty shit to me. I feel like there's a fair reason why I had never heard of Joe Ely before... I prefer Country music from women artists so I didn't have high hopes but there's nothing really interesting, inspiring or captivating from this album. I find the melodies cheesy and not in a good way, the lyrics aren't speaking to me either. This song Fingernails is particularly disturbing and makes me feel a little bit sick hahaha. Overall, not impressed.
Country music isn't my thing
Honky Tonk Masquerade is an uninteresting middle of the road classical country album. Nothing stands out: the production is mediocre, songs are weak and the performance sounds as a gig for the money.
One good song and one decent song doesn't take away that the rest is just not good enough.
What a terrible sounding record. The tones are so awful on this, I couldn’t stand it. The drum sound made me want to die. And there aren’t even any exciting solos or good pedal steel playing. Maybe this wasn’t the worst thing we’ve listened to but I had such a hard time finishing this one.
so bad, this is shit country music the 8 bit video game sounding "instrumentals" definitely did not help
I wouldn't listen to this if no one would ever find out that I was listening to this.
