Highway Of Dreams
Description
Product description No Description Available. Genre: Bluegrass Media Format:
Compact Disk Rating: Release Date: 12-SEP-2006 This stellar debut
establishes Bradley Walker as a classic country throwback, the kind of singer
who can make feeling awfully bad sound awfully good. His phrasing and affinity
for broken-hearted material invite comparison with George Jones (one can
easily hear Jones singing “When I’m Hurtin’,” while “He Carried Her Memory”
could be a companion piece to “He Stopped Loving Her Today”), his bittersweet
baritone is reminiscent of Randy Travis, and he covers Lefty Frizzell’s “I
Never Go Around Mirrors.” The album also benefits from harmonies by Vince
Gill, Rhonda Vincent, and Alecia Nugent. Though songs of love gone bad (none
of the material written by Walker) dominate, he shows a spiritual side in “A
Little Change” and “We Know Where He Is,” a workingman’s populism in “Payin’
Your Dues,” and even a happy ending in “If I Hadn’t Reached for the Stars.”
Mandolin, banjo, and fiddle drive the acoustic arrangements throughout, but
only the uptempo “Shoulda Took That Train” sounds closer to bluegrass than
country. The album’s packaging doesn’t belabor the fact that Walker was born
with muscular dystrophy; a talent this strong doesn’t need anyone’s sympathy.
