Artist: George Jones; Doug Kershaw; The Oak Ridge Boys Producer: Dave Cobb Distributor: Universal Distribution Notes: The 13-track compilation BAD MAGICK: THE BEST OF SHOOTER JENNINGS AND THE .357S is a fine encapsulation of the outlaw country scion's first four albums. Along with the 11 fan favorites like the title track and "Fourth of July" come two new songs, a respectful but ornery cover of Hank Williams Jr.'s "Living Proof" and a live take of his "Lonesome Blues."
As the child of country legends Jessi Colter and Waylon Jennings, Shooter Jennings might as well have been born on the sawdust floor of a honky tonk. After spending a few years in a little-known hard rock band, Shooter took up the family business and began releasing solid albums of guitar-heavy country in the tradition of his folks. Though Jennings is clearly in touch with country music's past, he is also very much a product of his own time. This gives his music a scruffy alternative vibe that aligns him with contemporaries such as Ryan Adams, Bobby Bare Jr., and the Drive-By Truckers. Jennings played his father in the 2006 film WALK THE LINE.
