YourUncleDodge - See all YourUncleDodge's reviews No one song really stands out, though
several are OK. It seems there wasn't
a whole lot of inspiration to go on.
"Widowmaker" is on both comps.

Pro Reviews: Blue and Gray
| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews Talk about bad timing had Rusty Young and Paul Cotton only brought this concept album out about nine years later, around the time of Ken Burns' The Civil War, it might well have sold a few hundred thousand copies, or at least generated a little press and gotten a shot at some sales. As it was, in 1981, no one really cared that much about a concept album built around the Civil War or, at least not a countryrock concept album. Perhaps, unlike White Mansions, it came out too long after the American Bicentennial or that the culture war embodied in Reagan's election in 1980 had wearied too many people on the matter of national conflicts and divided nations. As it happens, this isn't a bad album, and at least benefits from more energy and ambition than its immediate predecessor, Under The Gun. There's some fine playing throughout and generally good singing, and some of the writing is inspired, although there are some lapses into lightweight, unmemorable fare also. A little more consistency might have lofted this album to the level of the band's best recent work, but it's still worth hearing as one of the more ambitious records ever to come from this longlived countryrock band and it certainly didn't deserve the obscurity that enveloped it. - Bruce Eder, All Music Guide |
