Our Take

Skeets McDonald's latest release, "Don't Let The Stars Get In Your Eyes: The Singles Collection 1950-62", is a nostalgic trip down memory lane to a time when country music was king and twangy guitars ruled the airwaves.

McDonald's smooth voice and honky-tonk sensibilities are on full display in this collection of hits from the 1950s and early 60s. From the toe-tapping "Don't Let The Stars Get In Your Eyes" to the heartfelt ballad "You Oughta See Pickles Now", McDonald proves why he was a staple in the country music scene for over a decade.

The real standout on this album, however, is McDonald's ability to inject humour and wit into his songs. Tracks like "The Tattooed Lady" and "Don't Push Me Too Far" showcase McDonald's cheeky charm and knack for storytelling.

While some may dismiss McDonald as a relic of a bygone era, his music still resonates with modern listeners looking for a taste of classic country goodness. With its infectious melodies and timeless lyrics, "Don't Let The Stars Get In Your Eyes: The Singles Collection 1950-62" is a must-listen for fans of all things retro and vibrant. So, grab your stetson, put on your dancing boots, and prepare to be transported back to a simpler time in country music history. Skeets McDonald may have been a golden oldie, but his music still shines bright in the night sky. 🌟
