Wow, this record is just fantastic. Stripped down, bare boned, raw and unrefined country blues, it literally oozes authenticity.
J.D. 'Cast' King was 79 years old when he recorded this album, his first and sadly only full record before he died, despite a life time of travelling the roads, playing in bars and venues across the South. The songs recount the country staples - hard working, hard drinking, hard living, wine, women and lonely motels - with remarkable honesty
This stuff is pure solid gold.
Hello there. I just saw the movie Paranoid Park and was instantly touched by this man. Can you please re up the album?
