Honky Tonk Masquerade
Joe Ely

This album was so much fun to listen to but I literally cannot rank it high just because it is so basic. I'm not saying that basic is a bad thing, but it is just a typical southwestern country-rock-blues album. Like all the lyrics and the instrumental come together to form the most stereotypical country-rock sound, which does make the entire thing quite forgettable. It's not bad but once you've heard one track you've pretty much just heard them all, although it would be quite interesting to look into other albums that Joe Ely has made.
