CD REVIEW
HUSKIES & HUSQVARNAS
It's fabulously raw, somebody's
occasionally behind the beat and some of the rhymes can
be shaky but Tim Hus has a flawless ear and eye for the
woes and cares of the blue-collar dude, whether he's a
cowboy, train robber or just a hurtin' Albertan. "Beerhauler"
rattles off seemingly every beer brand in Canada while
"Rumrunner" is a knee-slappin' tour of 1920s
prohibition car chases in the Crow's Nest Pass. "Great
Plains Tour" is an amazingly evocative look at the
musical touring life and his cover of Danny Mack's "Canadian
Cowboy" is spot on.
Tim Hus is a Canadian treasure. Rating 4/5
