Carlene Carter Fan Club: Music

Mighty Sam McClain, "Give It Up To Love" LP

("Too Proud")
AudioQuest Music, 1993

Track #2 - "Too Proud," written by Carlene Carter.

ROLLING STONE

What puts McClain in the spotlight is his sheer power and empathy for lyrics. He'll squeeze each syllable of a heartbreaker like Carlene Carter's lamentation "Too Proud" until it pops like a geode, revealing every sparkle of humanity that goes into building a life for two, only to see it collapse.
TED DROZDOWSKI

This track also opened "Soul Survivor, The Best Of Mighty Sam McClain," on AudioQuest in 1999.
