Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

The declared mission of Alabama 3’s Outlaw is to find a way of romanticising Britain’s mythic criminals in song in the same way that American country music celebrates its pantheon of gunslingers, gamblers and sundry ne’er-do-wells. In this respect, the two key songs on Outlaw are "Have You Seen Bruce Richard Reynolds?" - a cool, wordy, talking-blues summation of the career of the Great Train Robbery mastermind and serial jailbreaker - and the single, "Hello... I’m Johnny Cash". The latter, set to Cash’s trademark boom-chicka-boom beat, acknowledges the late Man In Black as the principal inspiration of Outlaw, and is a fine and funny song in its own right.

Musically, Outlaw signals an end to Alabama 3’s recent stylistic wanderings, returning from the overt, and occasionally oppressive, techno of Power In The Blood and the acoustic starkness of Last Train To Mashville to the slightly dance-ified country which characterised their first two albums. This is all to the good, as those first two were Alabama 3’s best, until now. --Andrew Mueller



CD Description

Fourth album by unique London-based band probably best known for their song 'Woke Up This Morning', which became a runaway smash hit after being used as the theme to the TV show 'The Sopranos'. On this album their startling collision of techno with country & western finally sounds fully integrated,and it is being hailed as their best work yet. Features thesingle 'Hello I'm Johnny Cash'.

5.0 out of 5 stars they just keep getting better, 15 Jul 2005
I love all of A3's music and I was initially a little disappointed with this one. However it grows, especially if you see them perform much of it live. The ususal mix of blues, dance beats, c& w, politics and humour with addition of some samples (eg Aslan) and rapping by Bruce Reynolds.....what more do you need? well you could always visit www.oldgitsandtheirhits.co.uk and read more.

4.0 out of 5 stars Genius, 21 Nov 2006
Another brilliant album from the Alabama 3.

Larry's vocals sound fantastic. There's less of a techno edge to this one, but it's still very catchy with some classic riffs on a country-theme.

Stand out tracks (for me):

* Last Train to Mashville - you WILL sing-a-long
* Up Above My Head - builds steadily to an arm waving finale
* Have You Seen Bruce Richard Reynolds - real story telling through music and you've gotta love that twang (and the BRR rap)
* Honey in the Rock - sexy, bluesy vibe
* How can I Protect You - love the sample

I've never found anyone who doesn't like the Alabama 3 once introduced to their unique sound. And they are my never bettered benchmark of a live performance.

4.0 out of 5 stars A great progression in the band's evolution! Yummy., 26 Jun 2005
By Cinema4 (San Francisco, CA) - See all my reviews
Being in the US, I prolly wouldn't be able to get this album for 6 months to a year from now. Thanks Amazon.co.uk for speeding up that process! Those new to Alabama 3, this is a great starter album. Those who know the band, Outlaw is a great branch of the very diverse styles of A3 (their US name). They have returned to the country styles of their fist few albums, interlacing it with electronic beats, choir harmonies, and plenty of vocals. What a treat.

This album is more inspirational and upbeat then the wonderful heavy sounds of Exile and Le Paste. It doesn't feel as oppressive but more hopeful and optimistic. There are also a lot more guest singers on this record as well.

I do feel that some of their songs are are somewhat rethreaded, especially if you have heard the Last Train to Mashville volumes "Hello I'm Johnny Cash" and "Up Above My HEad"). Sadly, some of the gospel flavor that infused their first two albums, is less evident here, but if you are in the mood for some sweet sweet country with an eccentric edge, then you have fond your band.
