Men Are Some of My Favorite People

 (7 customer reviews)

I have listened to this album over and over again and each time I laugh. In fact, I loved the album so much that I asked Kacey to be a guest on my television program that runs locally in Nashville, TN. Along with talking about her career, she performed a couple of the songs that are on this album. It is very hard to entertain an audience for an hour with just your songs and your personality and Kacey does it well. It's hard to pick out my favorites from this album but if I had to, I would chose the very clever, "A Woman's Mantra," the gritty, "Just To Torture Myself," and her top 10 hit, "I'm The One Mama Warned You About." The hilarious banter in between the songs captures the flavor of the live concert and makes me feel as if I am there. I hope she comes up with another album soon. I can't wait to hear some more material from this extremely talented lady.

I bought this record because Kacey Jones produced the Kinky Friedman anthology Pearls in the Snow, and I was intrigued by the question of what kind of woman could put up with the Kinkyman long enough to have lunch with him, let alone actually work with him for a time sufficient to produce an album. I don't like chick singers. But if Kacey Jones' tunes are any indication of her inner self: humorous, intellectual and just plain beautiful, I'd like to be first in line to ask her for her hand. 1-900-BUBBA is the funniest song I've heard in a great while. This record should be heard a lot more than it is.

Men are Some of My Favorite People is one of my favorite albums. Kacey Jones is a combination of Erma Bombeck and Ray Stevens, and how wonderful for all of us. I still laugh out loud at songs like "1-900-Bubba", and "Put the Seat Back Down". If you're lucky enough to see Kacey in person, you're in for a treat..if you can't see her in person, at least there are albums like "Men are Some of My Favorite People" that give you a glimpse of what this artist can really do...make us examine the "human factor" in relationships and love and laugh at ourselves.
