You need to see Loretta Lynn at Stubbs Bbq tonight.
Forget about country music – Lynn is a legend in MUSIC. She recently finished a new album, Van Lear Rose, with musician/producer Jack White of White Stripes fame.
Some things you may not know about Loretta Lynn: she was a good friend of the late, great Patsy Cline, she is part Cherokee, and she had four children by the time she was 17.
Lynn’s collaboration with White has borne incredible fruit. It’s back to basics for Lynn on this album. Don’t let her age fool you – although she is in her 70s her songs can still make you move. This septuagenarian still sounds sexy and fresh. Check out “Stomp” and “Portland, Oregon” if you don’t believe me.
