Description
Joe Ely ORIG UK LP Musta notta gotta lotta VG+ ’81 MCA MCF3099 Country Rock
Original UK LP released in 1981 on MCA Records. Cat: MCF3099.
Musta Notta Gotta Lotta, Joe Ely's fourth studio album, appeared two years after his third, Down on the Drag, and those years were eventful. Ely had been signed to MCA Records in the wake of the Outlaw movement in country, and on his first three albums he had come across as a potentially successful country artist in that vein, both because of his own songs and those of his friends Butch Hancock and Jimmie Dale Gilmore, former bandmates in the Flatlanders. But in 1979, Ely was taken up by the Clash and opened shows for the British punk rock group in both the U.S. and U.K., leading to the release in Britain of the concert recording Live Shots in 1980. MCA U.S. held off on the disc (it was subsequently issued domestically in October 1981), but Musta Notta Gotta Lotta demonstrates the influence of Ely's new compatriots. It may also simply show that he has moved in a more aggressive direction after years of playing to as many rock as country fans.
