Certainly there is nothing else in the Country Music canon quite like Rex Allen Jr..'s "Today's Generation". Promoted upon it's release in 1970 as " Underground Country", it is an album both ornate and very listenable. But no amount of adornment with electric sitars, melotrons and harpsichords can disguise the fact that this is also a howl of pure, neglected, post-adolescent angs. Obsessed with mortality, guilt, conformity, the Vietnam war and drug experimentation, Rex was clearly at a "troubled" juncture in his life. Imagine the Tibetan Book of the Dead as voiced with all the gothic undertones and crooner inflections of a southern Scott Walker and then interpreted by A-list Nasville session players. Remastered in 2008 from the original master tapes. Deluxe packaging, 24 page color booklet with exclusive notes, interviews and rare photos etc.
