From Colin Ernst, “Just a Minute” is the hook of the collection—how does he squeeze so much sound into one minute, all leading to the refrain of “Hold on, wait just a minute” organized from the lead up 30 seconds—a Threepenny Opera of an arrangement; if anyone knows his Brecht, I can guarantee it’s this dude.
Following on Colin Ernst’s heels, we have newcomer Country Legend Dick Freckles, a songwriter that seems to be both trained and skilled, but this time, as the name suggests, amping up the humor; with the right gusto, you can make the star of Look Who’s Talking Too sound like the focus of midnight mass—Wes Anderson could probably make a video for this puppy.
