Review by Thom Owens
Got No Bread / Tryin' Like the Devil combines James Talley's 1975 and 1976 albums for Captiol Records on one disc. Talley had a gift for writing detailed, bluesy folk songs that were aimed directly at working-class audience. of course, it was the kind of venture that worked on a cerebral level more than a visceral one, so critics -- and even President Jimmy Carter -- celebrated these songs, while very few people ever bought either album. Still, both of these records hold up remarkably well, and there's a number of understated gems scattered throughout this compact disc.
Track List:
1. : W. Lee O'Daniel & The Light Crust Dough Boys
2. : Got No Bread, No Milk, No Money, But We...
3. : Red River Memory
4. : Give Him Another Bottle
5. : Calico Gypsy
6. : To Get Back Home
7. : Big Taters In The Sandy Land
8. : Intro
9. : No Opener Needed
10. : Blue Eyed Ruth And My Sunday Suit
11. : Mehan, Oklahoma
12. : Daddy's Song
13. : Take Me To The Country
14. : Red River Reprise
15. : Forty Hours
16. : Deep Country Blues
17. : Give My Love To Marie
18. : Are They Gonna Make Us Outlaws Again
19. : She Tries Not To Cry
20. : Tryin' Like The Devil
21. : She's The One
22. : Sometimes I Think About Suzanne
23. : Nothin' But The Blues
24. : You Can't Ever Tell
