One for the ages
, July 15, 2000Reviewer: claytonm_2001 - See all claytonm_2001's reviewsI guess I should point out that I can't stand modern country music...it's all so slick and overproduced. True country to me is Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson. With this release Dwight may have secured his place along side those legends. It takes an incredible amount of talent to pull of an entire cd of just "me and my acoustic guitar" music, but not only does he do it, these new versions are more compelling than their originals. My personal favorites are "It Only Hurts When I Cry" and "Buenas Noches." It's a remarkable work that gets better with every listen. ...

Pro Reviews: dwightyoakamacoustic.net
| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews At first glance, dwightyoakamacoustic.net might look like a simple re-recorded greatest-hits album that's pleasant but unnecessary. However, the spontaneity and depth of these performances should give any Yoakam fan pause before dismissing it out of hand. Other than the fact that it has no discernible connection to the Internet, the album is exactly what the title promises: aside from one electric-guitar overdub, it's nothing but Yoakam and an acoustic guitar the whole way through. This ultra-stripped-down setting gives Yoakam a chance to establish an intimacy of performance that relies simply on the expressiveness of his voice and his ability to fill up space with compelling guitar work. To a certain extent, Yoakam could be handicapped by the familiarity of most of these songs, but revisiting one's back catalog is certainly not without precedent; outlaw country's biggest stars frequently re-recorded old favorites to reflect their changing sounds. Besides, he's generally successful at reinventing this selection of hits and top-notch album tracks for the album's solo format. Without much to concentrate on other than emotive power in Yoakam's voice, the heartbreaking ballads are that much more affecting, culminating in the a cappella, album-closing rendition of the once uptempo "Guitars, Cadillacs." The approach also helps evoke the wide-open spaces of songs like "Bury Me" and "A Thousand Miles From Nowhere." Not everything here is revelatory -- in the end, some songs are merely pleasant -- but overall, dwightyoakamacoustic.net is a left-field success, a testament to the richness of Yoakam's back catalog and his skill as an interpreter. - Steve Huey, All Music Guide |

Dwight Yoakam Biography
With his strippeddown approach to traditional honky tonk and Bakersfield country, Dwight Yoakam helped return country music to its roots in the late '80s. Like his idols Buck Owens, Merle Haggard, and Hank Williams, Yoakam never played by Nashville's...Full Dwight Yoakam Biography
