Daily Freeman Review By David Malachowski, Reviewer

----------------
Maynard Brothers' 'Honeymoon in Meatland' classic -- WITH MUSIC - 05/30/2008

Based in Johnsonville, the Maynard Brothers Band have a rockin' record of roadhouse blues called "Honeymoon In Meatland." Together in various incarnations for decades now, this definitive edition features Ervin (guitars) and Jeffery (bass and vocals) Maynard, as well as Harold Reiser (percussion) Gary "Zeke" Brajczewski (guitar) and Tony Perrino (keyboards). This blazing CD was recorded at Tony Perrino's Home Studio at the Greenfield Center.

Title track "Honeymoon in Meatland" kicks things off with and un-holy cross between Foghat, ZZ Top and every great bar band you've never heard as Jeffery Maynard's snarling vocal pulls the nasty track around by its ear. "Wasting My Time (in Love With You)" holds some sweet guitar licks.

"How Many Hearts" is a simmering slow blues, as Maynard and Zeke trade solos. Other highlights include the anxious "Different Kind Of Light," the blistering "The Storm is Raging" and the haunting "Dead Man's Clothes." The album closes with the introspective, dare we say pensive "Life Is Simple."

Though the Maynard Brothers are playing bigger clubs and quite a few festivals as of late, you can say that you take the band out of the bars, but you can't take the bar out of the band. The brothers' aren't afraid to get their hands dirty, and the classic grit and grind on this CD will never go out of style.

Let's hope.
