High-Tech Redneck
''High-Tech Redneck'' is an album by American country music singer George Jones. It was released in 1993 on the MCA Nashville Records label and went Gold in 1994.
==Recording==
By 1993, Jones had recorded two critically acclaimed albums for MCA but was still having a great deal of difficulty getting played on the radio, which was focused on younger, emerging stars. The new album, which employed two producers, Buddy Cannon and Norro Wilson, was an attempt by MCA to broaden the singer's appeal, with biographer Bob Allen observing in his book ''George Jones: The Life and Times of a Honky Tonk Legend'', "In 1993, the label released ''Hi-Tech Redneck'', a new and oddly uneven Jones LP that tried to cast him in a slightly different and more lighthearted perspective, in hopes of breaking the radio deadlock." It didn't work; the album made it to number 30 on the ''Billboard'' country albums chart while the single peaked at 24 - a very ''respectable'' showing in reality, considering the lack of radio play the singer was getting. The other single from this album to make a chart appearance in ''Billboard'' was his duet with Sammy Kershaw, "Never Bit a Bullet Like This", a song also found on Kershaw's 1993 album ''Feelin' Good Train''. The album was dedicated to Conway Twitty, who had died in June 1993, and features a cover of Twitty's "Hello Darlin'" to close out the album, which Jones had also recorded during his stint on the Musicor label.
"A Thousand Times a Day" was later recorded by Patty Loveless on her 1997 album ''The Trouble with the Truth''. "The Visit" was later record by Chad Brock on his 2000 album ''Yes!''
