DBTs

The Drive by Truckers is a band that calls themselves “roots rock” – their sound is flavored with references to the southern rock of the ‘70’s and other pop references of that time. Growing up in the south – in Memphis, and in Albany, Georgia – I think I met a bunch of kids like these guys.


My friend Jared had a link to them on his FB profile, so I followed the tip over to iTunes and found a 14 song playlist, from a range of their albums. Mary and I listen to this CD on our drives to the Hawksbill Cabin, or as we are cruising down Ida Loop on the way into town.

Song title

Two Daughters and a Beautiful Wife
That Man I Shot
Hell No, I Ain’t Happy
My Sweet Annette
The Day John Henry Died
Carl Perkin’s Cadillac
Never Gonna Change

Just thinking of this, I think I am going to dig up my Little Feat CD.  I was happy to learn that the DBTs are still recording and even have a new record in the works. You never know where you will find a tip on something you’ll like, eh?
