Review

Kinky's self-titled second album includes many of his best creations, and it works because, no matter how far the lyrics stray from traditional country terrain, the songs are always delivered with sincerity, conviction, and high-quality musicianship. Arrangements range from steel-drenched honky-tonk to peppy swing to orchestral ballads, while lyrical themes range from the pseudo-gospel to the adolescent, the satirical to the nonsensical, the mundane to the mystical. Another highlight is Friedman's hysterical liner notes, which discuss the travails of a "Texas Jewboy" dealing with record execs and coming to grips with his station in country-music society. Originally released in 1974, this record must have done something right, for it precipitated appearances on both the Grand Ole Opry and Bob Dylan's Rolling Thunder Revue. --Marc Greilsamer
