"In My Wildest Dream" by Andybob (Country Artist from California(CA))

Let there be no doubt, Andybob's "In My Wildest Dream" is a foot stompin', country-rock album that celebrates its redneck – er, country – roots with all the subtlety and nuance of a tailgate party. Opening with the title-track, "In My Wildest Dream," a rocker that'll have Harley riders howling approval, Andybob establishes the parameters of his Telecaster-driven sound with both classic and contemporary accoutrements. Featuring a solid ensemble behind him, Andybob's brand of melodic, up-tempo country is pure roadhouse, musically and lyrically. In "Never Tell Your Real Name" he offers up advice straight out of the what-happens-in-Vegas guidebook, while "Fighting Words" is an ode to one of redneck nation's favorite pastimes. Elsewhere, Andybob waxes nostalgic & sentimental, and even reflective, but throughout the 12-song collection his tunes are informed by the same catchy and rhythmic flair that's a hallmark of traditional country music. Check out Andybob's fine "In My Wildest Dream" for a taste of humorous, down-home country music that's delightfully infectious.

"Hannah McNeil" by Hannah McNeil (Country Artist from Tennessee(TN))

Over time, Hannah McNeil will no doubt read many a review and article about herself that references Hannah Montana. How can it be avoided? Like uber-popular Miley Cyrus, who plays the household-name character on TV and in movies, McNeil is a young, country-pop singer-songwriter with terrific original songs, and the delivery to make them unforgettable. With a style of writing and performing that blends the grass-roots charm of Patty Loveless with the contemporary grit of Gretchen Wilson, McNeil's self-titled debut CD is a knockout of one hook-filled tune after another. "What Am I Getting Up For" opens the album with an impassioned, up-tempo blast of identity crisis featuring a chorus tailor-made for radio. "Peace of Mind" is a fun, hip hop-influenced romp that's refreshingly literate and polished. "Celebrate Life," though, is the real standout here; like Lee Ann Womack's mega-hit, "I Hope you Dance," "Celebrate Life" combines the rarest of sing-along-worthy melodies with a message of self-empowerment and joy-of-life passion that crosses genres and generations. As surely as Hannah McNeil will have to live with references to that other Hannah for awhile, it's a safe bet that if she keeps making albums like "Hannah McNeil," soon enough McNeil will be the new standard for country singers named Hannah.

"Red Letter Day" by Tom Lucas (Rock Artist from Virginia(VA))

Originally released in 1976, "Red Letter Day" by Tom Lucas is a CD packed with the truest form of American Rock.

The original album contained nine tracks, but the addition of a new track, "Stars In The Night," gives the listeners a taste of nice harmonies and moving beats. The ballad-like song, "Days Numbered," displays emotive vocals and laid-back piano interplay. The entire collection of music on this album is straightforward and well-produced.
