The one hundred second album: #102 Loretta Lynn - Don't Come Home A Drinkin' (With Lovin' On Your Mind)

While it seems like I've been doing mostly rock albums lately (although that impression might be coloured by the gaps between them sometimes), country has been far less common and make for somewhat of a change.

I never connected with country as much - while I can feel some of the appeal, it also takes me the wrong way sometimes - too much longing and sadness, where aggression or happiness always work better with me. It's something later country takes on as well, but here we're still stuck with the blues references.

And so, while the music is well sung, the songs are good and the story is told, I keep hoping this gets pushed a bit further. Some songs hint at this - and Get Whatcha Got and Go really makes up for it and perked me up immensely - but I was hoping this would come back more often.
