Nathan Barr’s light but likeable score is unfortunately absent from this collection of country/MOR crowd pleasers with the likes of The Allman Brothers Band (‘One Way Out’) Lynard Skynard (‘Call Me The Breeze’) and The Charlie Daniel’s Band (‘The South’s Gonna Do It Again’) doing their best to bring a little life to Jay Chandrasekhar’s directorial disaster, based on the 1980s television series, about two good ole boys and the bad, bloated boss Hogg (played by Burt Reynolds) who is out to get ‘em. Though Jessica Simpson’s (who plays Daisy Duke in the movie) awful version of Nancy Sinatra’s ‘These Boots Are made For Walking’ sounds like a desperate grab at chart status, Ram Jam’s explosive ‘Black Betty’ and James Gang’s ‘Funk #49’ add a bit of edge to an album that while far from perfect could have been a whole lot worse.
