About this item
Amazon.com
Johnny Bush paid his dues from the mid-1950s on, working solo and with and longtime friend Willie Nelson in Ray Price's Cherokee Cowboys. Bush's first honky-tonk hit came in the late '60s when he was drumming for Nelson, and his star steadily rose until a 1972 stress-related vocal cord affliction wrecked his singing voice. Vocal exercises eventually allowed him to resume performing and, more recently, Botox injections brought a near-total recovery. Proving that is this career celebration, named for his boyhood in Houston's Kashmere Gardens, which inspired the opening ballad. Except for an unnecessary instrumental "reprise" of all the tracks at the end, Bush's Lone Star muse holds center stage throughout, with a zestful rendition of Moon Mullican's "I'll Sail My Ship Alone" (featuring pedal steel master Buddy Emmons) and a salute to Texas's blues heritage, "Free Soul," backed by bluesman Calvin Owens's orchestra, who beautifully frame his rendition of Ted Daffan's Texas country classic "Born to Lose." Willie assists on "Pancho and Lefty." A low-key rendition of Floyd Tillman's "They Took the Stars Out of Heaven" also features the then-88-year-old Tillman in a vocal cameo recorded soon before the honky-tonk innovator died in 2003. All in all, this album resoundingly underscores the 72-year-old Bush's achievements and his ultimate triumph. --Rich Kienzle
