TOO SLIM & THE TAILDRAGGERS/Free Your Mind: A delightful and glorious throwback to when music was in clubs and you could hang out with the act after the show (as long as you weren't an asshole). A raucous roadhouse brew of Americana that was made to facilitate beer and hooking up, let's hope the kids can bring us back an America that wasn't so PC that you couldn't smoke and drink and have a good time. This CD feels like the gateway drug to such a remembrance. - Chris Spector

Tim "Too Slim" Langford has an uncanny knack for writing songs that not only deal with his own personal experiences, but everyday life and its accompanying craziness as well. And, that is the underlying theme of his latest CD, "Free Your Mind." Tim wrote all eleven cuts on this set, and handles the guitar and vocal duties. They present quite a good mix of blues, Americana, and roots-rock, all driven by Slim's wailing guitar and smoky vocals.
There's a lot to like on this one, too. Check out the cool riff that drives the leadoff cut, "When You Love Somebody." Slim plays a killer slide on a song about perseverance, "Been Through Hell to get a little heaven." Slim assures us that everything's going to be all right in the end, with the uplifting messages present in "Peace With The Maker," and "Light." And, a man hopelessly in love continually "stares at This Phone," trying to literally will it into ringing.
We had two favorites, too. The title cut says to "Free Your Mind" by "pouring yourself a cold one" and "trying everything before you get old," because "life is better when you don't have a care!" And, a song whose idea came to Slim from reading the daily newspaper is entitled "Last Train." It's an ode to the general deterioration of society as a whole, and Slim's analogy here has us on a train about ready to jump the tracks, "with Hunter S. Thompson as the engineer!
"Too Slim and the Taildraggers certainly bring a "personal touch" to their brand of blues that Everyman can relate to. "Free Your Mind" is quite an enjoyable listen! Highly recommended! Until next time...Sheryl and Don Crow.
