Jimmy Dale & The Beltline Heartaches And Honkytonks (CD)

(Wild Records) 12 tracks, digisleeve

After I've listened to this album, I can say, I've finally found my peace with the today's term of 'Country Music'! The biggest part of today's so-called 'Country' is overloaded, overproduced and soulless Pop, in most of the cases from Nashville - the 'Capital of Country Music'! Folks, there's a little hope on the prairie horizon! In the land of our dreams and the cradle of Country Music are indeed artists, mostly on small labels for sure, who really feel what they sing and sing what they feel! Jimmy Dale and The Beltline are a fantastic example for really great, honest and down-to-earth Country Music and much more than Redneck songs about 'patriotism', 'mud on the tires' and 'Spring Break'!This is a five star release all the way and highly reccomended! Listen carefully, enjoy and learn! (Nico - Bear Family Records)
