Underground Album
''Underground Album'' is the 21st studio album by American country music, country musician David Allan Coe. ''Underground Album'' is Coe's follow-up to his 1978 album ''Nothing Sacred (David Allan Coe album), Nothing Sacred''. The album's music and vocal style was similar to other country acts of the era, but the lyrics are unusually explicit. Coe intended the album as ribald satire, inspired by his friendship with Shel Silverstein who wrote the comedy album ''Freakin' at the Freakers Ball''. As mainstream record labels would not release an album with such content, ''Underground Album'' was independently produced and recorded, and was not sold in stores. The album was available only through mail order via advertisements in the motorcycling magazine ''Easyriders'', and in the merchandise stand at Coe's live performances. Reception The album was little noticed in the mainstream until the songs began circulating on early file sharing websites, leading to a 2000 review from Neil ...

Rough Rider (album)
''Rough Rider'' is an album released by country musician David Allan Coe. It was released in 1982 on Columbia. Recording Coe’s fourth album in two years was written and recorded during a period of marital turmoil, and the five songs he composed for the LP reflect this personal upheaval. The first two numbers, “Pouring Water on a Drowning Man” and “What Made You Change Your Mind,” are cry-in-your-beer breakup songs coming to the painful realisation that love is slipping away. The Walt Aldridge-Billy Henderson ballad “Now I Lay Me Down to Cheat” - which was a minor hit for Coe, reaching #62 - continues this theme, with the singer uttering the guilty prayer: :''Now I lay me down to cheat'' :''On the woman I love so'' :''If I die between these sheets'' :''I pray to God she’ll never know'' “Time After Time” and “Always and Never” are the closest Coe comes to anything approaching love songs, but these tunes are tinged with jaded pessimism and ambivalence. “ ...

David Allan Coe
David Allan Coe (born September 6, 1939) is an American singer and songwriter. Coe took up music after spending much of his early life in reform schools and prisons, and first became notable for busking in Nashville, Tennessee, Nashville.

His biggest hits include "You Never Even Called Me by My Name", "Longhaired Redneck (song), Longhaired Redneck", "The Ride (David Allan Coe song), The Ride", "Mona Lisa Lost Her Smile", and "She Used to Love Me a Lot".

Family Album (David Allan Coe Album)
''Family Album'' is an album by country musician David Allan Coe, released in 1978 by Columbia Records. Recording The LP is best remembered for containing Coe's own version of "Take This Job and Shove It" and "Divers Do It Deeper". The former was released by Johnny Paycheck in October 1977 and became his signature tune. The song is a first person account of a man who has worked for fifteen years with no apparent reward, and it struck a chord with the public, even inspiring a 1981 film of the same name. Although Coe's name was credited, the assumption by many that Paycheck, an acclaimed songwriter himself, composed the tune would feed into Coe's growing bitterness with the industry as another one of his peers exploded in popularity. Coe was further disenchanted when pop star Jimmy Buffett accused him of plagiarising his hit " Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes" for Coe's "Divers Do It Deeper". The subject matter on ''Family Album'' runs the gamut for a country record, popul ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Hello In There
''Hello in There'' is an album released by country musician David Allan Coe, released in 1983 on Columbia Records. Recording ''Hello in There'' was Coe’s second LP of 1983 and sixth Columbia album of the decade. (He released ''Underground Album'', a collection of explicit material, independently on his own record label.) As he did on previous releases, Coe divides the record into two sections, Country Side and a City Side, although beyond this no apparent concept is evident. The opener, “Crazy Old Soldier,” hearkens back to the outlaw country sound Coe helped pioneer, with lyrics that juxtaposes regret, defiance, acceptance, and resignation, as does “I Ain’t Gonna Let You Go Again,” which features Warren Haynes on lead guitar. The title track, which was written by John Prine and appeared on his 1971 debut, tells the story of an old elderly couple whose children have all moved away. AllMusic’s Thom Jurek calls Coe’s reading “wonderful. He turns the lyric inwa ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Castles In The Sand
''Castles in the Sand'' is an album released by country musician David Allan Coe. It was released in 1983 on Columbia. Recording ''Castles in the Sand'' would be a huge comeback for Coe, peaking at #8 on the country albums chart, his highest showing since ''Once Upon a Rhyme'' hit the same mark eight years earlier. Its success was spurred on by “The Ride,” which was released in February 1983 as the lead single from the album and spent 19 weeks on the ''Billboard'' country singles charts, reaching a peak of #4 and hitting #2 on the Canadian ''RPM'' Country Tracks chart. The ballad tells the first-person story of a hitchhiker's encounter with the ghost of Hank Williams in a ride from Montgomery, Alabama to Nashville, Tennessee.''Billboard'', March 19, 1983 The mysterious driver, "dressed like 1950, half drunk and hollow-eyed", questions the narrator whether he has the musical talent and dedication to become a star in the country music industry.

Tennessee Whiskey (album)
''Tennessee Whiskey'' is a 1981 album by country singer David Allan Coe. Background By 1981, the outlaw country movement waned as the slicker "urban cowboy" era took hold in country music, typified by Johnny Lee's hit " Lookin' for Love", which critic Kurt Wolff panned the song as an example of "watered-down cowboy music."Wolff, Kurt, "Country Music: The Rough Guide," Rough Guides Ltd., London; Penguin Putnam, New York, distributor. p. 424 () Coe was an important figure in the outlaw country genre, but judging by the sound of his recordings from this period, he had no interest in the trendy urban cowboy phase. (He would, however, invite Lee to contribute to ''Tennessee Whiskey''.) Refusing to give into the flavor-of-the-month generic country "talent", Coe stuck to what he knew and sharpened the edges. Like his first two LPs of the 1980s, ''I've Got Something to Say'' and ''Invictus (Means) Unconquered'', ''Tennessee Whiskey'' had a more polished sound but were firmly rooted in a ...

Invictus (Means) Unconquered
''Invictus (Means) Unconquered'' is an album released by country musician David Allan Coe. It was released in 1981 on Columbia. Recording With its radio-friendly sound and guest duets, Coe's previous album ''I've Got Something to Say'' was an attempt to reach a wider country audience, and this process is continued on ''Invictus (Means) Unconquered'', with producer Billy Sherrill couching the songs in tasteful instrumentation that put the spotlight squarely on Coe's voice. In his AllMusic review of the album, Thom Jurek calls the LP "arguably the finest album of his career" and singles out Coe's vocals for particular praise: ''Invitus'' is also noteworthy in that Coe only had a hand in writing just four of its ten songs, although considering the songwriter had produced ten albums of nearly all original material for Columbia in seven years, a creative dry spell was understandable. " A Boy Named Sue" songwriter Shel Silverstein contributes three songs, including "Someplace to Come ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
I've Got Something To Say
''I've Got Something to Say'' is an album released by country musician David Allan Coe. It was released in 1980 on Columbia. Guy Clark, Bill Anderson, Dickey Betts (from The Allman Brothers Band), Kris Kristofferson, Larry Jon Wilson, and George Jones are all featured on this album. Background Although Coe had enjoyed great success as a songwriter and recorded high-quality albums since signing with Columbia in 1974, he had not broken through to the country music mainstream in the way other artists associated with outlaw country movement had. Coe could be his own worst enemy in this respect, alienating the mainstream by hanging out with biker gangs, recording an album of explicit songs, and falsely claiming he had been on death row for murder. Coe also became embroiled in a feud with pop star Jimmy Buffett, who accused Coe of plagiarising one of his songs. Coe often rubbed many of his peers the wrong way; according to Dan Beck, a Pittsburgh songwriter who was on the scene whe ...

The ''Billboard'' 200 is a record chart ranking the 200 most popular music albums and EPs in the United States.
