Through that, I got into Willie Nelson because he takes jazz, standard country, rock, blues, and then he's the glue.
Western Cum is the third studio album by American psychedelic rock musician Cory Hanson, released by Drag City on June 23, 2023.
[2] Editors at AllMusic rated this album 4 out of 5 stars, with critic Fred Thomas writing that "the overpowering guitars and relentlessly complex song structures that make up the majority of the album feel more like the sounds Hanson makes with Wand than something unique to his solo iteration, but he shares some new windows into his wonderfully mystifying psyche all the same".
[3] Writing for Paste, Matt Mitchell gave this album an 8.5 out of 10, characterizing it as "a merciless, gravitational, witty and absurd benchmark of technicolor rock ‘n’ roll... with a bluesy, unsaturated voice sanded down into an airy breeze that perfectly compliments the delicious solos and uptempo progressions".
[5] Uncut editor Michael Bonner included this album on his list of the best of the year.
