Pandora.com is one of my favorite websites for music while I'm at work.
I somewhat recently discovered Drive-By Truckers. I've been enjoying what I can find here and there. I haven't devoted a lot of time to tracking down an album because, well, they're country rock. I'm always torn when listening to country rock; one part of me loathes it while the other part of me loves it. Let's face it, country music is sooo not my scene. However, rock is TOTALLY my scene... along with alternative, some blues, hip-hop, jazz, bluegrass, punk, techno and death metal. We could even throw in classical for good measure.
Well, to come to the point, I was listening to my Country Rock station on Pandora this morning when I heard Don't This Look Like The Dark (Live) by Magnolia Electric Co. on their album Trials And Errors (2005). I *really* dug it and, therefore, I am trying to come to terms for my affection for Country Rock.

Check out BR549 and Hank Williams III
Oh - Also Junior Brown, Wayne Hancock and the latest Dylan. Especially Junior Browns killer guitar work.
oh you are singing your Dad's song here- he is "sharing" outlaw county with me somedays- somedays I can listen.......other days I feel like you- although the drive-by truckers are "interesting."
Okay, I've added them to the station. I'll let you know what I think! :)
Oh, and Son Volt from the previous (and I never thought I would hear these words together) ... "seminal alternative country band Uncle Tupelo".
