Details:
In spite of two well-received albums, you''d never pick Willie The Moak as a singer/songwriter out of a police lineup. He simply dosen''t look the part. "These pants were made in China" leaves no room for doubt. Willie writes from the heart and his is an uncommon talent. And quite a few other musicians agree. Backing these irresistible tunes are a group of musical friends spanning the last 20 years. These are all songs of experience, dealing head on with love,aging,dignity and the self-respect that comes from honest labor. In the title song you learn first hand of the personal effects of globalization on real people in Willie''s life back home in the rust belt. Others add his own unique twist to the classic topics of road trips, a home town in flux, his frist flying lesson and of course love & longing, but in true Willie style, celebrating family. The Band behind him has plenty of actual miles. His frist performance was in the 1960''s and after a stint in several rock bands, by the 90''s he was back to his frist love-accoustic music. For years, he''s been a regional staple, backing other musician''s recording efforts, and some of his best friends have come through for him in a big way. The quality of the band members shines a milliuon-watt searchlight on these compelling themes, and the way the players fit behind and around each tune makes you want to hit the repeat button for every cut on the CD.
