Patty Loveless Goes Back in Time for "Busted"

Posted: February 8th, 2010 at 4:52 pm  |  By: Chris Parton  

Patty Loveless tackles the Harlan Howard classic "Busted" on her Mountain Soul II album and makes it her own using traditional bluegrass instrumentation. After growing up in Kentucky, those mournful sounds and her voice now seem made for each other. Her video finds a confused waitress who appears to stumble back in time to a strange moving picture parlor. Filled with men who ravenously crank away at their personal viewing machines -- including Buddy Apple, loyal sideman to Doyle & Debbie -- she gives one a try and sees Loveless in the viewfinder. Unfortunately, the waitress remains confused, but since she's got a job, at least she's not "busted."

    This is a strange video. I can’t say it’s one of my favorite Loveless videos. It most definitely doesn’t do the song justice.

    The Waitress isn’t the only one left confused at the end of the video! LOL! Loveless looks great though!
