Don McHan- New Songs I Love

.........................................................

                    

       Here we present an early Don McHan album titled "New Songs I Love." As you might expect from such a man, a liminal figure of Nashville's golden "entertainment" age, this album falls back on the regional stock and trade in fine-ironed banjo starch and Norman Rockwell Bible Belt piety. And yeah... all the God fearing does get a little tired.  But "New Songs I Love" is not without a few charms. Don plays tambourine and hand percussion on virtually every track.  He lyricizes about dressing funny, smoking pot and taking pills (against it). And, in the end, manages to squeeze out two pretty good songs about nature mostly... the standout "Sounds of Living" and the cannily Davy Crockett-esque "Tennessee Rollin' Hills." Full download will not be featured on this one (trust me here), though I'm sure you could catch a copy if you pray hard enough.
