Hurry Sundown = Japanese = (CD)
The Outlaws hit their peak with this album. They had the best personnel on this LP, and showed the polish of a band that's learned the ropes through 2 previous albums. Henry Paul, who was the main country-western influence, left the band after this album. On all subsequent albums, their 'twang' was gone and they deteriorated into being an average metal band with no market differentiator. Billy Jones got more vocals on this album than on their first 2 albums, which is another good thing. In my opinion, Hughie Thomasson's vocals are average on a good day, and Billy had the unique Neil Young-like voice that could have really differentiated these guys (they way they differentiated Neil Young himself). Holiday is an amazing song, which really shows off Billy's vocal abilities. It should be mentioned among the ranks of Lynyrd Skynyrd's greatest rock anthems. Not sure why The Outlaws don't get the airtime of Marchall Tucker, Allman Bros, Lynyrd Skynyrd and even the Pure Prarie League. They are at least as good, and maybe someday they'll get their due. Until then, this is an outstanding LP which plays like a "Best of" album -- not a bad track to be found!
