Nothing Sacred (David Allan Coe Album)
''Nothing Sacred'' is the eleventh studio album by American country musician David Allan Coe. Released in 1978, it is Coe's fourth independent album, after '' Penitentiary Blues'', '' Requiem for a Harlequin'' and ''Buckstone County Prison''. ''Nothing Sacred'' was noted for its profane and sexually explicit lyrics, and was released solely by mail order. Background In the late 1970s, Coe lived in Key West, Florida, and Shel Silverstein played his album ''Freakin' at the Freakers Ball'' for Coe, who proceeded to play a series of his own comedic songs. Silverstein encouraged him to record the songs, leading to the production of this album.

His biggest hits include " You Never Even Called Me by My Name", " Longhaired Redneck", " The Ride", "Mona Lisa Lost Her Smile", and "She Used to Love Me a Lot". His most popular songs performed by others are the number-one hits " Would You Lay With Me (In a Field of Stone)" sung by Tanya Tucker and Johnny Paycheck's rendition of " Take This Job and Shove It". The latter inspired the movie of the same name. Coe's rebellious attitude, wild image, and unconventional lifestyle set him apart from other country performers, both winning him legions of fans and hindering his mainstream success by alienating the music industry es ...

However, under the paranoia that David is seeking to usurp the throne, Saul attempts to kill David, forcing the latter to go into hiding and effectively operate as a fugitive for several years. After Saul and Jonathan are both killed in battle against the Philistines, a 30-year-old David is anointed king over all of Israel and Judah. Following his rise to power, David c ...

AllMusic
AllMusic (previously known as All Music Guide and AMG) is an American online music database. It catalogs more than three million album entries and 30 million tracks, as well as information on musicians and bands. Initiated in 1991, the database was first made available on the Internet in 1994. AllMusic is owned by RhythmOne. History AllMusic was launched as ''All Music Guide'' by Michael Erlewine, a "compulsive archivist, noted astrologer, Buddhist scholar and musician". He became interested in using computers for his astrological work in the mid-1970s and founded a software company, Matrix, in 1977. In the early 1990s, as CDs replaced LPs as the dominant format for recorded music, Erlewine purchased what he thought was a CD of early recordings by Little Richard. After buying it he discovered it was a "flaccid latter-day rehash". Frustrated with the labeling, he researched using metadata to create a music guide. In 1990, in Big Rapids, Michigan, he founded ''All Music Guide' ...

"Why Don't We Get Drunk" is a novelty song written and performed by American singer-songwriter Jimmy Buffett. It was a B-side to "The Great Filling Station Holdup", the first single from his 1973 album ''A White Sport Coat and a Pink Crustacean''. The song is a fan favorite, and until the 2007 ''Bama Breeze'' tour, was almost always performed at Buffett's live concerts. Buffett wrote the song under the pseudonym Marvin Gardens, derived from a property on the original Atlantic City version of the Monopoly game board. Description The song is a parody of standard country music love songs. Buffett states that he made the song "as a total satire ndwasn't even going to put it on the album. We did it foolin' around in one take. But immediately that song became controversial, and there were jukebox sales." Buffett further notes, "I was hearing a lot of very suggestive country songs—in particular, Norma Jean's "Let's Go All the Way". I figured I would write a song that would leave no ...
