Mark Houston - Mighty Biker Nation (1999)

 I saw this CD in a thrift store and I thought it was going to be some ridiculous cheesy hard rock but I was surprised to hear some legitimate country music.
This guy was from the "low desert" of Murietta California and his music is full of all of the cliches of the country music genre.
America. God. Texas. Nashville. He calls grown men "mister" and, alternatively, "son" at appropriate times.
He does a weird song about being in love with his guardian angel.

The best song musically and lyric-wise is "Burnin' Down the Bridges".
It's a little bit country and a little bit rock-n-roll.   
These lyrics: "You offer no use I've got nothing to say
I'm cutting you loose now get out of my way
"
That's good stuff.

But these aren't my favorite lyrics.


 From the song "She's a Babe!!"

"She can make a freight train take a dirt road just to watch her passin' by..."

I'm no fan of country music. The only country music I can tolerate is the band Slim Cessna's Auto Club.
Check them out. I saw them live and I was blown away. I have seen many country music bands live and I never felt any kind of allure.
I just don't like country so don't worry...you won't see much more country music on this blog. If I happen upon some rare obscure country with no real online presence I will post it
to keep the rare stuff alive but I ignore country music when I go on music hunting missions.
