Performer: Lonnie Mack
Producer: Lonnie Mack; Barry Beckett Distributor: Sony Music Distribution ( Notes: Digitally remastered by Randy LeRoy (Final Stage, Nashville, Tennessee). This is part of Lucky Dog's Pick Of The Litter reissue series. Photographer: Paul Natkin. Arranger: Lonnie Mack. This is a highly welcome reissue of an album that came and went rather quickly at the time of its original release. Ironically, the opening song "Too Rock For Country (Too Country For Rock n Roll)" was an accurate description of ROADHOUSES & DANCE HALLS' commercial prospects. Stylistic confusions notwithstanding, the Lonnie Mack is in spectacular form here, dispensing generous helpings of his instantly identifiable blues guitar work (an often-imitated combination of lightning speed, thick vibrato, and judicious use of the whammy bar), and singing with astonishing white-boy soul. In fact, there is even a critical school of thought that Mack is even more important historically as a singer than as a guitar hero. Some of the more exemplary moments are the self-penned and very witty seduction ode "Plain Jane in a Mustang" and a terrific medley of two Hank Ballard songs.
