cyclops-leveling is the new block-rocking
Bob Lefsetz does a rundown of the top selling records. Coming in at number 48, Darius Rucker’s “Learn to Live.”
A Hootie record. Serviceable songs delivered in a heartfelt manner. This still works in country, but not in pop. In pop you’ve got to dress up like an alien, use computers and have beats that would level a cyclops. But it’s the country artists who have careers, who people want to see on the road. And if you still think country is twang, you haven’t listened in eons.
