◎レビュー (Amazon)
Grand Ole Opry star Johnny Russell first gained notice as a songwriter in 1960 after Jim Reeves recorded his "In a Mansion Stands My Love" (flip side to "He'll Have to Go") and came into his own after Buck Owens's 1963 hit with his "Act Naturally" (later recorded by the Beatles). Russell's own hit singles (most notably 1973's "Rednecks, White Socks and Blue Ribbon Beer") earned him Opry membership and later, regular TNN appearances. While he avoids remaking his own hits on this CD, the songs here are all his, with cameos by Dolly Parton, Buck Owens, Marty Stuart, Bobby Bare, Crystal Gayle, Earl Scruggs, Sonny Osborne, and sidemen who provide strong bluegrass accompaniment throughout. Russell revisits "Act Naturally" with Owens, Scruggs, and Stuart. Parton joins him to reprise "Making Plans," her 1980 hit duet with Porter Wagoner; Gayle duets with him on "In a Mansion." Most of these star-studded affairs generate more hype than music. By maintaining the meat-and-potatoes approach that's served Russell well for decades, this one's an exception to the rule. --Rich Kienzle
