Charlie Rich

Boss Man

Description: Not to be confused with Big Boss Man, a stunning collection of his 1964 Groove recordings, this 1970 reissue finds Rich in a relatively subdued mood. While this record may not match up to his best work, the man simply oozes talent out of every pore and even his lesser efforts contain moments of brilliance. Rich originals such as the sensitive "I Can't Even Drink It Away," a straight-up, honky-tonk bottle song, and the gritty, rollicking "Memphis and Arkansas Bridge" hit the mark, as does his reading of Conway Twitty's "Hello Darlin'" and producer Billy Sherrill's pledge-of-fidelity "I Do My Swingin' at Home." Not an essential Rich title, but quite an appealing release nonetheless. --Marc Greilsamer
