John Brannen - "The Good Thief"$10.98 SLY 3001 Think of The Good Thief as two rivers running, one into a jungle of lust, steamy and warm, the other into darkness, where shadows obscure the things we think we know. Both currents flow through the songs of John Brannen. On The Good Thief, his fourth album and the first from the new Sly Dog imprint, they carry his artistry for the first time up to a place that's above category. It's not country, though he has done his time in Nashville and shared a tour bus with Shania Twain and Toby Keith. And although it was Joe Walsh who essentially insisted that Brannen be signed to his first record deal, it's not exactly rock & roll, though Brannen has rocked his share of clubs. It's not regional, though his lyrics draw from the same well that nourishes some of the South's most evocative writers.
