On Rodney Carrington's Morning Wood, a couple of the country comic's songs are included twice, in both live and studio versions. It seems to be a requirement of country comedians that they also sing humorous country songs, and Carrington thankfully has a good voice, although his topics are the usual ones. This time around, Carrington's attitude prevails, as he spins out his jokes and relies heavily on audience interaction. ~ William Ruhlmann With Morning Wood, country comic Rodney Carrington made three albums in three years, which is more than any but the most prolific comedian should attempt, and the strain of coming up with new material is starting to show. Morning Wood is a thin collection, padded out with Carrington's comic songs, a couple of which are included twice, in both live and studio versions. It seems to be a requirement of country comedians that they also sing humorous country songs, and Carrington thankfully has a good voice. His topics are the usual ones, from smutty cracks to send-ups of Orientals, Mexicans, and homosexuals. But this time around, he's getting by mostly on attitude, spinning out his jokes through repetition and audience interaction, which works better in the clubs he plays than on record. Next time he should either write an entire music album or wait until he really has an album's worth of spoken material. ~ William Ruhlmann 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. 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."   Compilation Appearances Beer For My Horses (Ost)   Technical Info Release Date : 08/15/2000 Original Release Date : 2000 Catalog ID : 24827 Label : Capitol/EMI Records Number of Discs : 1 Studio/Live : Mixed Mono/Stereo : Stereo SPAR Code : n/a UPC : 00724352482726    Product Image
