LEE ROY PARNELL: BACK TO THE WELL

   Going back to the well, like going back to the drawing board, can have negative implications, implying failure of some sort and a need to rethink a once-promising strategy. On the other hand, a person could go back to the well not to lick wounds and regroup, but rather to sup from the cup of inspiration in gathering one’s strength for a new day.
   That new day has arrived for Lee Roy Parnell, the Texas-born and –bred ‘90s mainstream country hitmaker with an ornery streak of southern rock ‘n’ soul ‘n’ blues in his system, who has signed with Universal South Records and is set to release his first new album in four years, tellingingly titled Back To The Well. It is, in all respects, the sound of an artist reclaiming his natural turf (see accompanying timeline for specifics), not by disavowing what he once was, but rather by embracing what he is and using the strengths of his past to inform his present direction.
   Launched with a funky, shuffling backbeat that sets the stage for the entrance, seconds later, of signature, searing jabs of electric slide guitar, which in turn precede the sound of a lived-in human voice--husky and bluesy, immediate and urgent all at once--the album opening "Back to the Well” signals the end of the “long dry spell” Parnell laments in the lyrics.
   Carl Perkins once said that if a man lives long enough, he'll run into himself again. It appears the 49-year-old Parnell has reached that exalted plateau, because on Back To the Well he's trading on all the best elements that have defined his artistry since his 1990 debut for the Nashville division of Arista Records. For starters, his signing with Universal South reunites him with the savvy executive who courted and signed him to Arista, Tim DuBois, now the Senior Partner at the label, which he formed in 2001 with one of Music City's most important contemporary producers/executives, Tony Brown.
