On DOWN HOME CHROME, ace guitarist/singer Junior Brown offers up more of his ought-to-be-patented synthesis of 1960s honky-tonk country and surf- and blues-rock styles. With a deep, smooth voice out of the Ernest Tubb/Del Reeves school of crooning, a double-necked guitar, and an overall sound that encompasses influences as diverse as Dick Dale, Jimi Hendrix, and legendary pedal steel guitarist Pete Drake, Brown makes his stories about cars and the losses of money and love come to life with rascally warmth and humor. Brown stretches out on a feverish, feedback-laden take on Hendrix's "Foxey Lady." "Hill Country Hot Rod Man" is supercharged with both Western swing and jump-blues brands of fuel. The album concludes with the languid, extended, Albert King-like "Monkey Wrench Blues." With CHROME, Brown is all over the map--which is a good thing, as there's plenty to explore here.
