I'd add The Gourds, the Old 97s, Bob Wills, Slobberbone, the Derailers, the Weary Boys, the South Austin Jug Band and Ramsay Midwood to the list. Not to mention Townes Van Zandt and Steve Earle. Well, Earle wasn't born there but as he's wont to say, he "got there as fast as he could".

There was one thing wrong with that article, there was no mention of this man: http://www.aseclub.net/gallery/albums/album52/Al_Bundy.jpg If anyone ever had it in for Okra, he did... Ed O'Neill?

some great songs there But Shouldn't Scarecrow By Mellencamp be on that list? I think his appropriating "Won't Get Fooled Again" is a bit of self-serving mental masturbation personally. The claim that the conservative moment is filled with disillusioned revolutionaries, thus making the so...

Won't Get Judged Again Won't Get Fooled Again has been listed in the UK Independent Newspaper as the number one song with - as I understand it - the political messaage most often misunderstood. Of course it has no political message at all. It is not precisely a song that decries revolution - it sug...

From an online write up about the soundtrack to the John Waters movie A Dirty Shame : http://www.bigyawn.net/columns/inspiredby/10-19-04.htm One film track sadly missing from the album is the Fred Campbell number "The I-95 a**hole Song," which is hilarious but perhaps anachronistic (for th...

Manson is about as responsible for the outcome of the election as he was for Columbine.

I'm not a Slayer fan but I see nothing at all the matter with a day being devoted to them. If you find it offensive you might wanna look into what G.G. Allin did in his lifetime. I don't agree with a bunch of the things he did but he certainly pushed the limits of what is deemed acceptable by the st...

be on that list?

I have no idea but I remember that album being an impetus for Farm Aid which seemed to rail against the U.S. Government and their treatment of the American farmer no matter the party lines.

More accurately it's a Hugh Prestwood song that was covered by Kathy Mattea. Buffett has also covered Savannah Fare You Well, another Hugh Prestwood original.

Rock'n'roll reactionaries: Meet the not-so-hip parade So you think modern music is the sound of revolution? Think again. The right-wing US magazine 'National Review' has taken a fresh look at some of our favourite songs and discovered a decidedly conservative streak. Dylan will never sound the same...

Rat in a drain ditch, caught on a limb, you know better but I know him. Like I told you, what I said, Steal your face right off your head. Now he's gone, now he's gone, Lord he's gone, he's gone.

I too wonder what one's weight or appearance has to do with their political stance and, if Wino is so against mixing music with politics I wonder whey he counts himself as a fan of John Prine and Todd Snider. Because, if for no other reason, their music is quite good. Also, they don't make a habit ...

I believe so. I'd love to see a VH reunion with Dave but I believe that time passed long ago. Obviously it's something Dave wants very badly but I don't see it happening. If it does, it will be out of greed just like The Eagles neverending tour from Hell. They don't get along but wave the proper amo...

I think what Garry is trying to say (and that most of you don't understand) Is that when those fans bought tickets to that show, they were buying tickets for a "Dixie Chicks in Concert," not a "Dixie Chicks Concert and Political Rant." Nothing more dangerous than trying to speak...
