Album 365: Day 187 - Southern Culture On the Skids - Dirt Track Date

Southern Culture On the Skids
Dirt Track Date
1995














Favorite tracks: Soul City, Fried Chicken and Gasoline, Eight Piece Box
Sleeper tracks: Make Myan a Hawaiian, Dirt Track Date

This is an album I appreciated more in 2013 than I did when I bought it in 1995.

I fell into the trap of 'Camel Walk'.  It was a strange tune that got radio play and I thought it was cool.  I spun the album a few times but didn't keep it in rotation.

I really liked listening to it today.  The guitar work and tone is really great.  The drums sound great.  The whole album is clear sounding and a well-produced pseudo-rockabilly record.  I'm glad I thought of listening to this record.  I will probably play it during the upcoming warm summer evenings at Ft. Wisconsin.
