Music reviews of Let the Rough Side Drag
Music Review: Best of One of the Finest
Rating: 5 Stars
This is my favorite album by Jesse Winchester. As mentioned in another review, you've got a mix here of country, folk, gospel, bluegrass, rock, and singer-songwriter sincerity. I agree that "Let The Rough Side Drag" and "Brand New Tennessee Waltz" are great tracks, to which I'd add "Lay Down Your Burden," a tender lullaby for his daughter. It moved me when I was a teenager in the mid-70s, and even moreso now that I have my own daughter. Winchester has many good albums and great songs ("Mississippi You're On My Mind" is arguably his very best song from the Learn to Love It album), but this is one of those albums that seems to have its own life, where the artist's emotion, spirit, and craft all came together in one inspired album. Highly recommended--but get as many of his early albums as you can, now that they've been reissued!
