	Dwight Yoakam - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Dwight David Yoakam (born October 23, 1956) is an American musician, songwriter, and actor.
		Yoakam was born in Pikeville, Kentucky, and raised in Columbus, Ohio, growing up with his mother and step-father, who had a white-collar job in the automotive industry.
		Outside of school, Yoakam sang and played guitar with local garage bands, and frequently entertained his friends and classmates as an amateur comedian, impersonating politicians and other celebrities, such as Richard Nixon, who, at that time, was heavily embroiled in the Watergate controversy.

		Country star DWIGHT YOAKAM is full of praise for his new movie lover, MELISSA LEO, after she bared all for a sex scene with him.
		Dwight Yoakam never has really left country, but his recent album, "Blame the Vain," may mark a return to the moody, raw music that made the crooner famous in the 1980s and early 1990s.
		These dozen self-penned and self-produced cuts are typical Dwight — the lonesome vocals with a hint of a yodel, the hillbilly boogie and heartbreak ballads, the unwavering devotion to the classic country sounds of Johnny and Buck and Hag and Waylon.

		His version of "Fast As You" is a dazzling example of DWIGHT's oft-overlooked talent as a guitarist--an arresting, almost pyrotechnic blend of rhythm and texture that draws the listener in with its distinct, almost hypnotic groove, and lends the segue into the desolation of "Home For Sale" a profound resonance.
		Dwight’s understanding of country’s past is one of the great vitures of his music; his will to go the past one better...to jump the energy level up several notches, is an equally important viture in the Yoakam canon.
		DWIGHT isn't afraid to step outside the boundaries of country altogether: listen to his remakes of the stormy swamp rocker "I Hear You Knockin'," Wilbert Harrison's RandB exhortation "Let's Get Together," his cover of "Truckin"' on the Grateful Dead tribute album Deadicated, or the Warren Zevon-penned "Carmelita" on Flaco Jimenez's solo album Partners.

		How fitting that Yoakam’s first self-produced album would be completed in the spring, that time of rebirth: "You have to continue to discover and rediscover yourself through pushing toward a new context for expression," Yoakam explains.
		Yoakam had just come off the road in 2002, (after four years of nonstop touring) when he stumbled across a scene that would change the direction of his musical journey.
		Yoakam chose some kindred spirits to bring his musical vision to fruition in the studio: Keith Gattis, Mitch Marine, Yoakam’s former bassist Taras Prodaniuk (on a rare break from touring and recording with Lucinda Williams), keyboardist/pedal steel guitarist Skip Edwards, and harmony singers Dave Roe, Jonathan Clark, and Timothy B. Schmitt.

	Artist Biography - Dwight Yoakam
		DWIGHT's musical instinct and approach have continually sharpened, attaining a consistence and clarity that is flat-out exhilarating.
		DWIGHT and Anderson's seemingly effortless facility in transposing and expanding country's various sub-genres, whether it's a hard shuffle, rockabilly passion, or the odd curl of a Cajun-style steel guitar figure, is downright wild--they pluck diverse elements seemingly out of the air, weaving them into gleaming new creations.
		DWIGHT also looks far beyond country's established heritage and boundaries with the chugging reggae rhythm and dub break of "For Love’s Sake"; his straight, sweet reading of Cheap Trick's "I Want You To Want Me,” provides the opportunity to extend both his own appeal and, in the process, country music as a whole.

		Dwight Yoakam hasn't released a bum LP since his 1986 debut, Guitars, Cadillacs, Etc., Etc., busted out of the gate.
		For real?), Yoakam has a sense of his place in the universe, which is why he delights in unapologetically goofball roadhouse songs like "Sorry You Asked?" without turning them into pure shtick.
		And because sentimentality is also part of the country tradition, Yoakam nods to that, too, but he can wash away its excesses with a single line the way a wave flushes out a tidal pool.

		Dwight's understanding of country's past is one of the great virtues of his music; his will to go the past one better — to up the ante emotionally, to jump the energy level up several notches — is an equally important virtue in the Yoakam canon.
		It was strange chemistry, certainly, but Dwight stuck by his guns and achieved a new audience for his heady combination of gutsy country emotion and rock 'n' roll electricity.
		Dwight summed up his career to date with 1995's "Dwight Live," a smoking document of the last dates on his 1994 "This Time Tour" recorded at San Francisco's Warfield Theater.

		Before Dwight Yoakam ever appeared on stage, a buxom Marilyn Monroe-style woman in sheer clothing wriggled her way through a burlesque bump and grind, and two belly dancers -- one balancing a saber on her head -- swiveled around aimlessly.
		Yoakam embedded "Please Please Baby" with Elvis-derived inflections, while guitarist Keith Gattis plied the fiery rockabilly performance with a choppy, rhythmic guitar solo in which he became a sort of extreme version of the King's Sun labelmate, Carl Perkins.
		Dressed in a pin-striped jacket, jeans and a cowboy hat, Yoakam performed with enough intensity that he broke a couple of guitar strings during his two-plus hours, proving that a couple of decades have done nothing to diminish his passion for his work.

	Dwight Yoakam Discography -- Slipcue.Com Guide To Hick Music
		Dwight's indie debut came out early enough to grant him the sheen of a true "outsider..." Released on a California indie, this EP set Dwight's hard country agenda out as plain as could be: John Anderson's solid traditionalism with an edgy West Coast bite.
		Widely lauded as Dwight's triumphant return to his hard country roots, this album is actually one big nudge-nudge, wink-wink effort, and a pretty good litmus test of those of us who pay attention to lyrics and those of us who don't.
		Dwight both directed and starred in the film, a dismal western most characterized by it's uber-gratuitous use of coarse language and lame, cheaply stylized violence.

		Dwight was making an appearance in Chi-town, that's Chicago to all of you out-of-Chicagoers, but first up was a guy I reviewed a while back called David Ball.

		He has one helluva guitarist in Pete Anderson, and although he is behind a mike and monitors many a time, he puts out a presence that keeps the crowd going for the entire show.

		When Dwight Yoakam emerged on country radio in 1986 with a cover of Johnny Horton's "Honky Tonk Man," few would have guessed that he would outlast goldenboy labelmate Randy Travis as a commercial commodity.
		Capturing the highlights of Yoakam's enduring, consistently high quality contributions to country music is this four disc, 87 track collection, containing all the hits, plus key album tracks, tribute offerings, duets, covers, soundtrack efforts, and a sizable sampling of live recordings (whew!).
		Yoakam's moving duet with Flaco Jimenez on Warren Zevon's sordid drug tale "Carmelita" (from Jimenez's Partners CD) gets it started, followed by a so-so live rendition of "Suspicious Minds" (his original take - available on Last Chance For A Thousand Years, among other places - was superior).
