I'll buy that. But I refuse to say he's "alt.country."

Alt-Country?

Real Animal has forced me to put this in heavy rotation. Sublime.

You haven't dug deep enough.

I could give two shits what you or others want to categorize him as. Townes Van Zandt is country music.

Nope. Those are just plain ol' country.

What makes this country alternative? Or this. It's shame people can't just admit they like country music.

And bad advertising at that.

Indeed.

By calling the thread "Criminally Underlooked Albums," does it drive home a stronger message than the earlier thread titled "Underated Records"?

Wide Swing Tremolo over Trace and Straightaways? El Corazon #1? It's a good album, but I wouldn't put EC in Steve's top 5.

Even though it technically is September, I'm now listening to:

Still sounds good. Killer riffs.

I picked it up this spring on vinyl and it completely changed my opinion on that album. The CD does not do it justice. Nebraska is the same way. An entirely different experience.

It's all the same. It's all one song.
