Our Take
Our Take
In the wacky world of Ray Stevens, nothing is off limits. His latest album, "Ahab Jeremiah Sgt Preston", is a wild ride from start to finish. Stevens, known for his eccentric and comedic musical style, delivers once again with a collection of songs that will leave you scratching your head and tapping your toes at the same time.
From the ridiculous antics of Ahab and Jeremiah to the courageous adventures of Sgt. Preston, Stevens takes us on a musical journey like no other. The playful lyrics and catchy melodies make for an album that is as entertaining as it is bizarre.
While some may dismiss Stevens as a novelty act, there is no denying his talent and creativity. His ability to blend comedy with music is a rare gift, and one that he continues to perfect with each new release.
Standout tracks on the album include the infectious "Ahab and Jeremiah's Theme Song" and the energetic "Sgt. Preston's Patrol". These songs showcase Stevens' knack for storytelling and his knack for creating catchy tunes that will have you singing along in no time.
Overall, "Ahab Jeremiah Sgt Preston" is a delightful romp through the mind of one of music's most unique talents. Ray Stevens may not take himself too seriously, but his music is seriously good fun. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the madness that is Ray Stevens.
