Musically Declined: Lonnie Hillard’s Race Tracks II, The Crew Came Through & Get Em Next Week



Stock Car Racing and Country Music—two pillars of culture in the Southern United States.  And the two have mingled throughout the years.  So put on your racing shoes, make sure they match your cowboy hat, and settle in for a look back at some of Nascar’s biggest stars turned Nashville wannabes!


The Songs: The Crew Came Through & Get Em Next Week


The Stars: Ronald, Donald & Kenny Allison (on Get Em Next Week)


The Clips:   




The Review: “The Crew Came Through” appears to possibly be an attempt at jazz…but once again the genericness (if that’s a word) comes through much stronger than the crew.  As for “Get Em Next Week”, well, at least its memorable…in the sense that the Allisons sound like slowed down Boomhauers.  Also please note that I’m only going to be posting clips of each track, so you won’t be subjected to three Alabamians whining about their luck for three minutes.


The Verdict: I’m starting to wonder if the Seinfeld-esque electronic bass in the background is the best part of this project.
