we all write stuff we wish we hadn't. Me? On a daily basis. but there os screwing something up and then there is writing the single funniest sentence in rock and roll history.
It is like mad Magazine meets Spy Magazine.
It is like something I'd make up when I want to be a wiseguy…
Here is Rob Shieffield on Neil Young And Crazy Horse cover of "Oh Susanna"::
"The Horse attack the song with zero reverance, as the sloppy guitars wail and Young yelps, 'I comef rom Alabama with a b-a-n-j-o on my knee!" Together they make 'Oh Susanna" feel as turbulent as 'Hey Hey My My (Into The Black)'"
Why on Earth should a classic declaration of love song turbulent. Where's the turbelence? Where's the banjo for that matter.? Not only does the song sound like a self-parody, the review is hysteral. Young yelping…. hahahahaaaa…. 4 stars of course. Written by Rob Shieffield, who should know better.
