"Used To Be A Cop" Drive-By Truckers

[theundecider]

I always thought of these guys as a country novelty act. This song has changed my opinion of them.

The subject matter of loss & resentment really adds weight to this county/rock song for me. I love the guitar work toward the end.

It's from their latest album "Go-Go Boots"

[The Party Captain]

Hell yeah, man. You should give "Birthday Boy," off their last album, a listen. That one's a real rocker.

This is a great band. Their record "the dirty south" gets a lot of replay value. A bit too rock and roll for country and a bit too country for rock and roll, they float in that fun middle ground. Love this stuff.
