Rodney Carrington Album: “Morning Wood”
 Description :
Personnel: Rodney Carrington (vocals, guitar); Michael Clark (acoustic, electric & pedal steel guitars, banjo, mandolin, 6-string bass); Sam Bush (fiddle); Steve Allee (piano); Bob Hogan (keyboards, background vocals); Randy Melson (bass); Dane Clark (drums, percussion); Will T. Wright (background vocals); Doug Beng,e Frank Smith, Pepper Armstrong.
<p>Producers: Rodney Carrington, Tom Griswold, Steve Allee, Michael Clark.
<p>Engineers: Steve Lowery, Kevin Moore, Alan Johnson.
<p>Recorded at TRC Studios, Indianapolis, Indiana, live at In Cahoots, Wichita, Kansas and Cain's Ballroom, Tulsa, Oklahoma.
<p>Country comedian Rodney Carrington is essentially a good ol' boy version of Pauly Shore, or to make a closer to down-home comparison, a sort of X-rated Minnie Pearl. Which is to say that he may be country, but one rather doubts that he'll ever play the Grand Ole Opry.
<p>Potty-mouthed or not, he's undeniably funny, and he gets off some great comic riffs here, including one about the strange connection between Barney The Purple Dinosaur and sexual arousal in married couples. He also sings (quite well, in a clench-jawed, George Jones-ish way) some filthy self-penned C&W songs, two of which are offered in both live and studio versions. The best of the bunch may be "Pickup Truck," an ode to a vehicle he cherishes because "it won't sleep with my best friend."

- Rodney Carrington puts me in tears
Rodney Carrington, is by the funniest comedian I have ever listened to. He uses stand up comedy mixed with a few comedy jingles to not only make his crowds laugh but to keep them entertained.
Other reviews point to the fact that his albulms have too much singing on them. I disagree. Rodney CAN sing, hell if he wanted he probably could be a top charting country music artist. Songs like "Dear Penis", "Gay Factor Worker" and "Show Them To Me" all have thousands of lip-sync'rs on YouTube.
Rodney has a wild outlook on life. I own all his albums and will continue to buy every single one that comes out.
For some new material and some good old favorites, I highly recommend the DVD here on Amazon "Live At The Majestic". This is his new cd "King of the Mountains" but performed live.
Rodney rocks

- Rodney Carrington Review
Explicit - VERY! I did not care for a few of the tracks but it was a very funny album - Hilarious!
Rodney is, as always, funny! I love him in everything he does. This cd was by far to raunchiest and funniest yet. You can't help but laugh at his jokes and everyday life stories. |
