Penitentiary Blues

Even though Coe is known more for the niche he carved as "Country Music’s All American Redneck", he offers us a glimpse into his boundless natatorium of talent as he unravels his best collection of hardened tunes, Penitentiary Blues. Coe turned 66 years young in September, he had his first #1 song n 74’, yet his passionate porous voice blend combined with Coes' staggering inventiveness to tell a story still shine on Blues. Coe has spent more time in prison than in a classroom; homies got some shit to say. Undeniably one of country music’s prolific songwriters, with a resume that boasts Willie Nelson, Neil Young and the late great Johnny Cash. Truly a redneck for the ages, highlights include “Age 21”, “Cell”, “Funeral Parlor Blues” and of course the title track “Penitentiary Blues”.
