U Utah Phillips & Mark Ross - Loafers Glory
Review by Kovács Bertalan
Loafers Glory, the collaborative album by U Utah Phillips and Mark Ross, is a musical masterpiece that captures the essence of American folk music. The album features 16 tracks that showcase the duo's exceptional songwriting skills and musical prowess.
The album opens with the upbeat and catchy "Loafers Glory," a song that sets the tone for the rest of the album. The lyrics are witty and insightful, and the melody is infectious. The album also features some poignant tracks like "The Hallelujah Line," which is a tribute to the hardworking men and women who built the railroads that connected America.
One of the standout tracks on the album is "Rock Salt and Nails," a haunting ballad that showcases Utah's powerful vocals and Mark's excellent guitar playing. The song is a classic example of the storytelling tradition in American folk music, and it is sure to leave an indelible impression on the listener.
The album also features some fun and upbeat tracks like "I Will Not Obey," a song that celebrates the spirit of rebellion and non-conformity. The track features some excellent banjo playing by Utah and showcases his unique sense of humor.
