Get ready for some alcohol-laden, cheatin' outlaw country tunes with the second release "Howdy Do" by the international cowboys Brent Amaker and the Rodeo. This ain't no pop country, no sir-ee.

Review
Their new CD Howdy Do! begins with Welcome to the Rodeo. I like that this CD has a Welcome and an Outro (and rattling bottles in the background) as in old country albums. This one is bold enough to tell you No Refunds in the welcome, and why would you want one? I'm the Man Who Writes the Country Hits is a great classic and They Make Cowboys in Montana reminds you "in Texas they make men" and to "keep your loved ones close - kill the rest." These songs build cool scenarios with galloping rhythms and Amaker's voice has an entrancing quality. I get the impression he could be singing about anything and it would sound sexy. The title track is sweet indeed and Walking in My Sleep is haunting. This is the Gun, where Amaker sings, "die I will but not before I break your heart" is as warped as it is gorgeous. . . okay you can break my heart. --Dagmar Sieglinde
