Songs of Grit, Guts & Glory: Winston Churchill Slim Gallows and the Polyester Moonshine Syndicate
Slim Gallows and the Polyester Moonshine Syndicate trade their usual outlaw twang for wartime resolve on Songs of Grit, Guts & Glory: Winston Churchill, an eleven track honky tonk odyssey through one stubborn Englishman's life. From a prison break in South Africa to a mountaintop warning about the Soviets, by way of Gallipoli, the Blitz, and a cigar that never seemed to go out, this album finds the grit beneath the bulldog. Gospel tinged choruses, lonesome waltzes, and a whole lot of steel guitar prove that history sounds just fine with a twang.
