Reid Wilson & His So-Called Friends

Country Music Revolution (Dead Bird Records)

Here's pure old-school outlaw country for the 4:20 crowd with a touch of Cornell Hurd whimsy thrown in. "Rowdy," "The Hairijuana Song" and "Girls With Tattoos" pretty much say it all. This ain't thinking music; it's drinking music, so swing yer partner and kick out the jams.
