  Honkytonk Man (1982)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
"Honkytonk Man" is one of Clint Eastwood's most offbeat and atypical films; unfortunately, for the first hour, it is also one of his dullest.
The story just doesn't seem to move forward or to lead anywhere.

 Clint Eastwood - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Clint Sr., a sometime steel worker in the San Francisco Bay Area, was forced in the 1930s to seek work over a wide area of coastal and inland California.
According to film scholar David Kehr, the Eastwoods, with only child Clint Jr., spent much of the decade in motion, an experience that would inform such movies as 1982's Honkytonk Man, with its migrant, "Okie" families.
From his working-class childhood and upbringing, Eastwood the artist drew upon a perspective that was often far more archetypically middle-American than those of other California-born actors and directors.

 Slant Magazine - DVD Review: Honkytonk Man
It was also one of the earlier films directed by Eastwood to reveal the unmistakable disparity between the silent assassin persona audiences had come to embrace in him and the much gentler humanist behind the camera.
In light of the bitter truths of Honkytonk, the financial success of Sudden Impact seems less like a case of the Phoenix rising from the ashes, but rather Freddy or Jason rising from the grave one more time.
Honkytonk Man looks and sounds pretty good for its age, though the touted "all-new digital transfer" sometimes tends to betray a level of wear and tear in the source print.

 Slipcue.Com Music Guide - Honkytonk Country (page 1)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Although hillbilly boogie was more obviously a temporary fad than honkytonk, both had tremendous influence on the growth of both country and popular music.
Hillbilly boogie -- a driving, sometimes manic, guitar-based style -- was a clear precursor to the rockabilly and rock-and-roll sounds of the 1950s, particularly the enduring influence exerted by artists such as the Delmore Brothers, Hank Penny and The Maddox Brothers and Rose.
Honkytonk, exemplified by early pioneers such as Ernest Tubb and Lefty Frizzell, was less stylistically confined and soon became the basis for modern country music.

It's hard not to get lost in the Waylon-esque rhythms of "Honkytonk U." And you can't help but grin as Keith sings of giving in to his pride on "As Good As I Once Was" (Keith, too, has a big grin on his face as he sings these lines).
HONKYTONK UNIVERSITY is one of the best albums that's come out lately, and it's a personal highlite for Toby Keith.
Thankfully, Honkytonk University offers a return to the well constructed, melodic material that Keith was known for during his Mercury days and his first two DreamWorks albums (How Do You Like Me Now, Pull My Chain).

 Toby Keith - Honkytonk University - Review - Stylus Magazine
Unfortunately, it’s the best thing on Honkytonk University, an album which features four she-left-me songs alongside a pair of please-leaves before closing on three semi-sloppy ballads.
For an album that sounds as personal as those two tracks start it off, however, Honkytonk University is one missed opportunity after another.
Honkytonk University, however, only shows that he’s not completing his homework.

 Dwight Yoakam Discography -- Joe Sixpack's Guide To Hick Music
Since the late '80s, Dwight Yoakam has been hard country honkytonk's major label poster child, one of the best, most challenging country artists of the last couple decades, and one of my personal faves.
One of the earliest "alt.country" icons, Yoakam started out as an uncompromised West Coast-style honkytonker, but over the years he has mystified listeners with persistent forays into his own unique pop-hard country blend.
Record Number Two is even more amazing, a honkytonk heaven-send, and a pure delight for those who just like to plunk and sing along.

In Honkytonk Man, which he also directed, he plays a has-been who never was, a would-be country singer who dreams of performing at the Grand Ol' Opry.
As he works his way to Nashville with his nephew in tow (played by Eastwood's son, Kyle), he also battles with tuberculosis in a movie more interested in creating soggy handkerchiefs than musical credibility.

With 2005's HONKYTONK UNIVERSITY, however, Keith matches his outlaw aspirations to a set of tunes that remind his audience that he is a country singer first and a media icon second.
Theopening "Honkytonk U" is an autobiographical tune that sounds like an outtake from Waylon Jennings's HONKY TONK HEROES,complete with phase-shifted guitar and a four-in-the-morning vocal delivery.
Many of the other tunes here have a 1970s vibe as well, but with a poppier slant; the smooth melody of"Knock Yourself Out" recalls Ronnie Milsap, while the breezy feel of "Big Blue Note" wouldn't sound out of place on a Jimmy Buffett record.

 Blogcritics.org: Toby Keith's Honkytonk University: I Give It An A
The multi-platinum song-writer, country superstar follows up the chart-topping Shock-n-Y'all with a return to a more vintage Toby.
While the title cut an autobiographical "Honkytonk U" offer Toby at his Rockin' Roadhouse best, the rest of the cuts display a softer or more introspective side of Toby.
To me clearly the best cut is Toby's next single - "As Good As I Once Was" a tune that appeals to those whose are trying to hold onto the glory days.
