Rise Above It

Search: Livin for You
by: Jamie O'hara

Release Date April 12, 1994
I got this CD primarily for "What's A Good Ol' Boy To Do", which received heavy video play upon its release. Turns out that's not even my favorite track on the collection. It's a thoroughly enjoyable release from start to finish, with a chugging, bluesy rhythm on several tunes. The entire CD was written solely by O'Hara himself, as he proves himself a master wordsmith. Several exceptional ballads are also sprinkled in, including "The Cold Hard Truth", which George Jones covered on his album of the same name. "It Ain't Over" is a soft country lullaby, while "50,000 Names" (another tune covered by Jones) is a touching Viet Nam tribute.
Whether it's the rockers or ballads, O'Hara has an easygoing vocal delivery reminiscent of Billy Ray Cyrus's ... Read More:

Leavin' It All Behind

Search: Livin for You
by: The Grass Roots

Release Date December 01, 2006
I've got a well preserved vinyl copy and I jumped at the chance to get a limited edition remastered CD of what I think my be the best Grass Roots album ever. So far I've listened to it through Sennheiser headphones off a computer CD drive and I'm just blown away by the sound quality.

Every tune on this album is great listening. One of the "non hits" sort of reminds me of The Doors, and another of The Grateful Dead, but it's all 1960's rock heaven.

The true highlights are:

First, the full length version of "Walking Through the Country" which I've heard many times, but there seems to be an "extra verse" or two on this album. A great tune!

And best of all, the original version of "Wait a Million Years" with ... Read More:
