Music reviews of Sweetheart of the Rodeo
Music Review: Is This Country Rock?
Rating: 1 Stars
For many years, Sweetheart Of The Rodeo by The Byrds has been considered to be the first country rock album to be released. However, I disagree with this uneducated opinion even if I am in the minority. This album was a country album from beginning to end. A solid one, at that! In my opinion, country rock is rock music with a touch of country influence. If you want to hear the first country rock album, listen to Music From Big Pink by The Band! Furthermore, If you want hear an even stronger example from that genre, listen to Nashville Skyline by Bob Dylan! The other two artists who have even stronger country rock roots are CCR and The Eagles! Is Sweethearts Of The Rodeo a country rock album? I think not!
Description of Sweetheart of the Rodeo
Limited 'Millennium Edition' reissue of classic 1968 album in a deluxe heavyweight miniaturized LP sleeve complete with inner sleeve and a Japanese-style obi strip on the spine. 11 tracks. Individually numbered. 1999 release.After Chris Hillman dragged new friend Gram Parsons into the Byrds, they made an album as close to a country masterpiece as a rock act could ever make. In fact, the only tunes better than the definitive covers here of songs by Bob Dylan ("You Ain't Going Nowhere"), Guthrie ("Pretty Boy Floyd"), and the Louvin Brothers ("The Christian Life") are Parsons's originals, especially the incomparable "Hickory Wind." Sweetheart wasn't the first country-rock album, but with its gorgeous three-way harmonies and sweet pedal steel, it remains the best. --David Cantwell
