Our Take

Mickey Newbury's "Blue to This Day" is a whirlwind of emotions, a rollercoaster of nostalgia and heartache that will leave you reaching for the tissues and the nearest bottle of whiskey. With his distinctive gravelly voice and poignant lyrics, Newbury takes listeners on a journey through love lost, loneliness, and longing.

The album opens with "Three Bells for Stephen," a haunting ballad that sets the tone for the rest of the record. Newbury's storytelling skills are on full display here, painting vivid pictures with his words and drawing listeners in from the very first note.

Tracks like "San Francisco Mabel Joy" and "Write a Song a Song" showcase Newbury's songwriting prowess, with their poetic lyrics and soulful melodies. The stripped-back production allows Newbury's voice to shine, and his raw emotion is palpable in every word he sings.

But it's not all doom and gloom on "Blue to This Day." Songs like "Heaven Help the Child" and "She Even Woke Me Up to Say Goodbye" bring a touch of levity to the album, with their upbeat tempo and playful lyrics.

Overall, "Blue to This Day" is a masterpiece of storytelling and emotion. Mickey Newbury's talent shines through on every track, making this album a must-listen for anyone who appreciates good music and great storytelling.

About the artist

Mickey Newbury

Ah, Mickey Newbury. The man, the myth, the mutton chops. This Texas-born troubadour has been wowing audiences with his unique blend of country, folk, and gospel since the 1960s. With a voice as smooth as a glass of Tennessee whiskey, Newbury has earned a reputation as one of the most distinctive voices in American music. His songwriting prowess is second to none, with classics like "An American Trilogy" and "San Francisco Mabel Joy" cementing his status as a musical genius. But don't let his serious side fool you – Newbury is also known for his quirky sense of humor and outlandish stage antics. Rumor has it that he once serenaded a group of llamas at a county fair, much to the delight of onlookers. Despite his undeniable talent and larger-than-life personality, Newbury has remained somewhat of a mystery to the mainstream music world. But true music aficionados know that his music is a hidden gem just waiting to be discovered. So grab a glass of bourbon, put on your cowboy boots, and let Mickey Newbury take you on a musical journey like no other. Trust us, you won't regret it.
