Details
slower and softer than 2010†s I Am What I Am, a record where Hag gently dwelled on his mortality. There are times where his age crosses his mind -- particularly on †Sometimes I Dream,† where he casually lists off things that aren†t likely to pass his way again -- but generally, he†s ready to †Laugh It Off† as he gripes about what†s playing on the radio, smokes a little dope, and enjoys playing a little bit of blues as he looks back to the past, even cutting a couple of old favorites (†Cocaine Blues,† †Jackson†) and a new version of †Working Man Blues.† Hag never rushes things, never turns up the volume, his western swing now bearing a closer resemblance to the gentlemanly amiability of Hank Thompson instead of the wild, woolly Bob Wills. He†s proceeding at the pace of a 74-year-old legend with nothing to prove, yet he†s not resting on his laurels, he†s just doing what he†s always done: singing songs so expertly his virtuosity almost goes unnoticed. Condition:NEW. Punched upc.
