Late to the game but am voting Cash. Mainly because Elvis is still 'Hounddog' and almost 'Hounddog' only to me. Such is the price of being a self-taught music nerd: gigantic and weird gaps in your music library.

2. Am taking the song (when am I ever not?) I actually had a screen cap lying around I was going to show you, featuring all your uploads as listed in my iTunes library....

4. Concept albums: iffy in theroy, often awesome in practice? Only other album I can think of is Aimee Man's 'The Forgotten Arm', which actually ought to work better as individual tracks than it does for me - the bound song-order and the story they tell have made it hard for me to pluck out one song and listen to it without being reminded of how it 'fits in'.

Also: I never checked back with you re: Drive-By Truckers. I love them. It's a slow journey but it's definitely going forward. Honestly, my love was cemented with the very first track on Decoration Day. Crime and incest FTW! Now THAT it how you open an album! Also, the slash has ruined me; my first thought at 'them four little babies' was "whut? ass babies? ohwaitaminute!" Heh.

Long comment, sorry.

i'm glad you're enjoying the truckers! "the deeper in" is actually about the only real-life brother-and-sister pair serving time for consensual adult incest. patterson read about them in esquire and then wrote the song. :)
