    Press Reviews
    THIRD COAST MUSIC, July, 2000: (4-star rating)...."Day hits some 100-proof homers. "You Should Know by Now", "She's Just an Old Time Memory", Blue Lonesome Blues" and "Beer on the Bar" are all the twangy stuff of swollen tear ducts and 12-beer hangovers, laced with a pungent blend of steel, fiddle and trickling honky-tonk piano..........Day is the real deal and certainly a litmus for those who think they like traditional or 'real' country music.....you just gotta love the pure-as-Pabst Blue Ribbon, lay-it-on-heavy brand of traditional country music he serves up. HNC it ain't. Recommended it is!"COUNTRY MUSICAL TRAILS LESS TRAVELED, May/June, 2000: "The title song and the cover photo....are almost worth the price of the CD. "Country Feelin's" is one of the best country songs I've heard in a long time. Most of the songs, including this one, have a melody that you could hum or whistle. How long since you've heard an album of songs like that? You'll miss some really good songs if you pass this one by. This one is highly recommended."LE CRI DU COYOTE, May/June, 2000: "150% Traditional, this record has the flavor and the voice of Johnny Cash at his beginning. Some of the songs literally sound like standards ("You Should Know By Now", "Ballad of George", "Where You Left Me", "Beer On The Bar"). Resolutely anchored apart from the modern Music City, these two irreductible guys (songwriters Day and Tom Wardle) may almost be taken for rebels. A great 'thumb one's nose' at the marketing of the major companies."TOBIAS HULTQVIST, NASHVILLE SHOWCASE REVIEWS, August, 2000: "What a relief to listen to George's new album!. This is how country music should sound. Plain, straight and country to the bone. Listen to tear-stained ballads, catchy tunes and honky=tonk songs. Every DJ out there must have this for his collection......this is good! George's voice reminds me of Johnny Cash and Larry Kingston. It's deep and honest...made for country music. My favorite tracks are "Beer On The Bar", Blue Lonesome Blues", Losin' My Life", and of course the title track that gives me true "Country Feelin's".
