after 21 years of nothing, i figured, in my little brain that it may be alright to post this adams house cat record, town burned down . also me thinks that it if it would have seen the light of day, it would have by now considering the trucker's popularity. for those unfamiliar with the whole ordeal this is patterson and cooley's band before forming the drive by truckers. it was recorded in muscle shoals back in 1990. oh, and are we ever gonna hear a mike cooley solo record? i could have sworn that i read that one [...]
![[YTE ORIGINAL MIXTAPE] No Rhyme, No Reason](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3096693_lg.jpg)
Here is a little impromptu mixtape of stuff that I have been listening to heavily lately. There is definitely an alternative country theme here. I did include some upcoming tunes, Tennis and Yuck. If you like some of the stuff, go check them out on Bandcamp , because some of the stuff I found as a free download there. Enjoy this weekend. ______________________________ ______________________________ ______________________ DOWNLOAD No Rhyme, No Reason HERE ______________________________ ______________________________ ______________________ 1] Adam's House Cat - Nine Bullets [...]

As promised, a repost of last year's alt country-ish/indie rock-ish Xmas comp. I switched up a few of the songs from last year's post. And I tried not to post too many that my main man at A Truer Sound hasn't already posted. But let's face it, some of these songs are so damn good that they have to be posted twice. I also want to take this time to remind you to donate to your favorite charity this season. Since I like animals more than I like humans, I usually donate to the [...]

Full disclosure: I got several of these country and/or western Christmas tunes from my fellow blogger at A Truer Sound who posted a kick-ass country Christmas mix last year, and recently re-posted it. ZIPPED 1. Adam's House Cat - Santa's Out of Rehab by Christmas.mp3 No clue where this came from. Adam's House Cat is the precursor to one of my favorite bands, the Drive-By Truckers . This track was probably recorded sometime between 1988 and 1990. Its fun listening to [...]

Actually, 8 reasons and two reasons to love Elvis remixers. And before you start commenting about what an ignoramus I am, I do know that Elvis wasn't much of a songwriter. But I submit that these songs are Elvis covers because the songs wouldn't be famous but for The King's involvement. 1. Little Sister-Pearl Jam . Is there any song Eddie can't sing well? 2. Stairway to Led Zeppelin-Neil Pepper . The only better Stairway parody is "Stairway to Gilligan's [...]
