Product Description And just who are the Old Dogs? Waylon Jennings Mel Tillis Bobby Bare and Jerry Reed These four legends of country music have united to record an album full of side-splitting and politically incorrect songs about growing older and the bitter realities of the music industry. All songs on the Old Dogs project were written by infamous singer/songwriter, Shel Silverstein. Amazon.com The Old Dogs are Bobby Bare, Waylon Jennings, Mel Tillis, and Jerry Reed, four old-school country & western legends now rejected by a youth-obsessed Nashville. Refusing a rocking chair, these good old boys have fought back and made music for the mature, twang-lovin' audience they know is still huge. To wit, the 11 steel-guitar-driven cuts here, all from wacky songwriting legend Shel Silverstein, are aimed at the senior set. The 10 punch-line novelties ("I ain't too old to cut the mustard, I'm just too tired to spread it around") are joined by the bittersweet, and even wise, closing ballad "Time." The overdubbed crowd noise grows more than annoying and there isn't a note here that suggests you can teach old dogs new tricks. But this disc argues loud and clear that, by God, the old tricks are still plenty good enough. --David Cantwell Review It's a live-in-the-studio recording of 11 Shel Silverstein tunes that run from humorous ruminations on aging ("Still Gonna Die," "I Don't Do It No More") to a scathing commentary on Nashville.... -- USA Today, ISBN13: B00000FYH0 ISBN10: B00000FYH0 Material Type: audioCDProduct Description And just who are the Old Dogs?
