Intl. Press for George V’s
ROLL
WITH THE PUNCHES
CD on MASSIVE Records
(Australia/New Zealand):
"THE
BEST COUNTRY FOOT-STOMPER I'VE LIFTED A BOOT FOR THIS YEAR!"
-THE MELBOURNE
TIMES, Australia
"This is George - The Next
Generation...
as far removed from eye-linered Garthisms as modern country is going to get
in the post-MTV age...the pure, hog-wild, unfinished article...gorgeously
wistful.
ONE FOR BAD-ASS PURISTS OF ALL AGES!"
-COUNTRY MUSIC
INTERNATIONAL, London,
England
"EXCELLENT.
Honest, evocative barroom & blacktop flavored songs. This guy (with his
solid,
road-hardened band, the NashVegas Nomads)
is the business - SHIT-HOT!"
-REAL GROOVE,
New Zealand
"GEORGE
HAMILTON V's ROLL WITH THE PUNCHES
IS A BEAUTY! ONE OF 1995's TOP TEN"
-RHYTHMS
MAGAZINE, Australia
"TEETH-CLENCHING,
GUT-WRENCHING HONKY-TONK MUSIC WITH PASSION...
George Hamilton V has given Australia a taste of what the true
Nashville sound is all about.
His music stands as a rough diamond, evading the homogenization
that threatens to engulf many of Nashville's 90's-style country performers.
At the cutting-edge of progressive country, with the tradition
only someone born to the music could have."
-COUNTRY UPDATE,
Australia
"STANDOUT...George V
has unusual vocals and SOLID delivery...
He will certainly make his own mark."
-GOLD COAST
BULLETIN, Australia
"PROGRESSIVE COUNTRY...ROLL
WITH THE PUNCHES IS ONE OF THE BEST OF 1995!"
-TOTAL COUNTRY,
Australia/New Zealand
"Hamilton is a real hard-edge country artist with songwriting equal to
anyone who cares to throw a tune
up against his 12 songs (and no doubt a few hits amongst them) on
Roll With The Punches...
'Take My Advice'
(off this CD) is a top radio song."
-COUNTRY MUSIC
MAGAZINE, Australia
"STRONG...Roll
With The Punches is the spiritual music of a footloose troubadour
heading his own freewheeling band, the
NashVegas Nomads."
-COUNTRY MUSIC
PEOPLE, Britain
"Roll
With The Punches shouts from the rooftops that George V has a
style of his own...
You really must listen to him."

-COUNTRY MUSIC

that earthy feel - served with plenty of drive.

A DARN GOOD ALBUM!"
-COUNTRY MUSIC
ROUND UP, Britain
"UPLIFTING...RAW-BONED
ROLLICKING...STONE COUNTRY -
SOUL DEEP!
This is not your chain store conveyor belt cowpoke chugging to
the dance mix drumbeat of music city
corporate cog clutchers. Hamilton injects his music with passion & pathos -
a hell raising fusion
of country, folk and roots-rock...REBEL
WITHOUT A PAUSE!"
