If you like romantic ballads, lush string arrangements, and heartfelt lyrics of undying love to whisper to your soulmate - whatever that is - then this album ain't for you.
Run to the nearest Starbucks, order a latte/mocha/frappa-whatever drink, contemplate your carbon footprint for the day, put on a Celine Dion CD and go to your happy place. Everything is okay.
On the other hand, if you like plain yellow mustard, any kind of meat as long as it's barbecued, sweet tea, and you drag yourself to church on Sunday morning no matter how late you were up on Saturday night just because you told mom that you would, then you're our kind of people.
Hard charging country, piano-pumping boogie-woogie and rock-n-roll with some gospel thrown in because it's the right thing to do. Blues you can use.
Not a love ballad to be had.
Lyrics about life here on earth, not some alternate universe of gumdrops, puppy dog tails, and cartoon birds cleaning your house and braiding your hair.
Spend a few of your hard-earned shekels and pick up this record. You'll thank us later.

  RadioIndy is pleased to present Clint Morgan with a GrIndie Award for the CD "You're Really Bugging Me Now" “You're Really Bugging Me Now” is an excellent piano blues/country gospel album from Clint Morgan, a talented musician with a great sense of humor. The entire album breathes Morgan's personality by combining secular and non-secular songs, Morgan's takes on gospel classics, and intelligently humorous songs about women and Wal-Mart. The arrangements center around Morgan's intricate piano work true to the blues, early rock & roll, and boogie woogie genres, though they also feature nice beats and some great blues guitar work. Morgan's vocals on the country gospel tracks are reminsicent to the crooning bass vocals of Johnny Cash, while the blues tracks sound like a fusion between Cash and Stevie Ray Vaughn. “You're Really Bugging Me Now” is well-produced, and it sounds polished and ready for extended play. “The Wonder of You” is a blues rock track with a great arrangement featuring organ, piano, guitar solos and some great, humorous lyrics about married life. “Garbage Man” immediately follows the standard gospel track “Just A Closer Walk With Thee” and features hilarious lyrics about Morgan's wife running around with the garbage man and the milk man and has an excellent piano solo. “You're Really Bugging Me Now” is a great album from an extremely interesting personality and should be picked up by any piano blues fan.-Chris & the RadioIndy.com Review Team |
