Darius Rucker - Carolyn's Boy

So today on the MSR (Midnight Star Review), I would like to talk about the latest album from Country Music Singer Darius Rucker. The new album is titled "Carolyn's boy" and was released On Friday October 6th, 2023. But before we dive into the new 14 track project. Let's talk about the Country Music Career of Darius Rucker first.

Some of the biggest hits from Darius include songs like "Wagon wheel" which features his buddies from Lady A, "It won't be like this for long", & "Come back song". And a few more hits from Darius include songs also like "Alright", "Don't think I don't think about it", & "If I told you". He was also Hootie from Hootie & The Blowfish. He has scored 3 number ones on my weekly lists MSR (Midnight Star Report) which combines both CMT (Country Music Television), the Billboard Country Music Airplay Charts, & even myself. The list also used to include GAC (Great American Country) until the list officially retired at the end of 2018. But before we dive too far off track, let's jump back into this new CD and show you some of the highlights I hear.

The current single from the CD is titled "Fires don't start themselves", and a former number one from another project as well "Beers and sunshines". Other songs you should check out are "In this together", "Never been over", & "Ol' church hymm" featuring Chapel Hart. Other songs I liked were "Have a good time", "Sure would have loved her", & "Southern comfort". Darius co-wrote 11 out of 14 tracks from the new project, and he had help from John Osborne (Brothers Osborne), & Michael Hardy (Hardy). The stand out tracks in my opinion are "7 days", "3am in Carolina", "Lift me up", & "Stargazing". Here is the rest of the track list up next.

Track list.

Beers and sunshine.

In this together.

Never been over.

Fires don't start themselves.

Ol' church hymm (Featuring Chapel Hart).

7 days.

Same beer different problem.

Sara.

Have a good time.

Sure would have loved her.

Southern comfort.

3 am in Carolina.

Lift me up.

Stargazing.

And that's a wrap for the track list. And on the MSR (Midnight Star Review), I would give this album a 4.75 out of 5 stars. The biggest question I have with the album is why are we revisiting "Beers and sunshine". But it is a very good album overall and Darius still in my opinion has one of the best voices in Country Music. Thanks for taking the time to read this review. See ya all next time.

Sometimes instead of swearing like a normal person I like to just make real songs more explicit:

So, fuck me mama like a wagon wheel Fuck me mama any way you feel Hey... mama fuck me Fuck me mama like the wind and the rain Fuck me mama like a southbound train Hey... mama fuck me

Old Crow Medicine Show - Jubilee

Fun fact: I’ve gotten really into bluegrass over the last couple of years, especially modern stuff. I love a lot of the modern country artists that include folk, Americana, and bluegrass influences, and one of the first outright bluegrass bands I ever listened to was Old Crow Medicine Show. These guys are famous for the song “Wagon Wheel,” which is partially penned by Bob Dylan. He wrote the chorus in 1973, whereas the band wrote and recorded the rest of the song in the early 00s, but Hootie & The Blowfish singer Darius Rucker put out a cover in the early 2010s that was very popular and renewed interest in the song. I don’t remember the album I first listened from OCMS, which was 2018’s Volunteer, but I do remember it being good. I didn’t listen to their last album, 2022’s Paint This Town, but I was surprised to find they released a new album this past week, entitled Jubilee.

This past week was a real home run for country, including new albums from this band, Turnpike Troubadours, and Zach Bryan, but this record is really solid. It’s nice hearing these guys again, because they’re a band that doesn’t necessary do anything out of the ordinary, but when they do release an album, it delivers in every way you’d expect. You’ve got a great mix of fun and energetic bluegrass cuts with some quieter and more introspective moments. For every song like the real fun and tongue-in-cheek track “Keel Over And Die,” you get something like “Miles Away” with original member Willie Watson, or “Allegheny Lullaby,” which is a song that talks about a character wanting to get out of the town he lives in, due to the limited opportunities for work. The album knows when to have fun, but it also has some poignant moments on it.

I was debating on writing about this album, but only because I wasn’t sure I had enough to say about this album to warrant a full review. Truth be told, there’s not much to say here, but this is a fun, catchy, well-written, and well-performed bluegrass album that has some poignant moments and a few great guest spots. Sierra Ferrell has a fun moment (she also appears on the new Zach Bryan album, coincidentally), but Mavis Staples appears on closing track “One Drop” that has a nice country gospel feel to it and ends the album on an optimistic note. This record may not necessarily blow your mind, but it’s one of those albums that works perfectly for what it is, and/or if you’re in the mood for what it has to offer. I wouldn’t say this is one of my top favorites of the year, but it’s a damn good album, nonetheless.
