Review

CMJ (12/4/98, p.3) - "...his songs condense the emotional weight of full novels into three- or four-minute nuggets....While your head will appreciate the depth of his work, your soul will appreciate his boot stomping sing-a-longs."
Dirty Linen (10-11/99, p.88) - "...Easton is a clever songwriter who sometimes seems to be thinking out loud, while other songs have characteristics of short stories....nobody can accuse this fine album of overstaying its welcome."

Title Note

Personnel: Tim Easton (vocals, acoustic 6- & 12-string guitars, electric guitar); Sean Beal (vocals, guitar, baritone guitar, accordion); Phillip Park (slide guitar); Al Perkins (pedal steel guitar, dobro, banjo); Tramp (mandolin); Teresa Fyfe (violin); Jim Hoke (bass harmonica); Brad Jones (Hammond B-3 organ, harmonium, bass, glockenspiel); Matt Surgeson (bass); Mickey Grimm (drums, washboard, oil can, percussion, loops); Ross Rice (drums); Justing Crooks (snare drum, foot stomp); Robin Eaton (chime); Annie Light-Brown, Clare Surgeson (background vocals).

Recorded at Alex The Great Studios, Nashville, Tennessee.

SPECIAL 20, named after a favored harmonica, is the first solo release from Haynes Boys frontman Tim Easton. Easton makes it clear he's one of the rare breed of songwriters--Steve Earle, John Prine, Lucinda Williams--who sing as well as they write. More restrained than the excellent eponymous Haynes Boys release of 1997, SPECIAL 20 shows an artist at the height of his powers. From the rousing opening track "Just Like Home," recorded on a four-track at Easton's Columbus, Ohio house, to the rhythmic and celebratory "Hey Rosine," SPECIAL 20 is that rare Americana-styled release that's honest and revealing without being sentimental. Those enamored of Easton's roots-rock style are directed to REVILED! by Burn Barrel, a group featuring all the Haynes Boys backing singer/songwriter J.P. Olsen.
