Lucky Chapman and The Ozark Mountain Boys have crafted a delightful album with "I've Waited So Long." The album is a blend of classic country and bluegrass with a touch of rockabilly. The musicianship is top-notch, with each member of the band contributing to the tight, cohesive sound. Chapman's vocals are warm and inviting, delivering the lyrics with sincerity and heart.
The album kicks off with the title track, "I've Waited So Long," a mid-tempo number that sets the tone for the rest of the album. "I'll Keep on Loving You" is a standout track, with its catchy melody and upbeat rhythm. "Back in My Arms Again" is a beautiful ballad that showcases Chapman's vocal range.
Other highlights include "Pickin' and Grinnin'," a fun, foot-stomping instrumental, and "Tennessee Waltz," a classic song that the band performs with reverence and respect. The album closes with "Goodnight Irene," a fitting end to a great collection of songs.
