Will Hoge should have a huge hit on his hands with "Washed By The Water". This is music to change the world!!
It's Country Rock mixed with Gospel and blues and it's the best thing I've heard this year!
The Hammond organ rolling through the backing, the huge hits on the snares, the gospel choir backing and Hoge's vocals (with something of Dylan in them) all go to create an immensely powerful track.
And the song has a heavy message tucked neatly in the lyrics - that poor folks are never listened to by the rich and the "powerful". But that don't mean poor folks are worthless!
My View: If the music industry wasn't so obsessed by image, this would top every chart there is!!
