Drive-By Truckers, Go-Go Boots

Sometimes I don't want a high concept album or songs with overly cryptic lyrics. Sometimes I just want to hear great straight-forward songs with great songwriting. There are 14 of them on Drive-By Truckers' Go-Go Boots. This alt-country band has been putting out albums (nine in all) for many years, and Go-Go Boots is their most successful. Some songs here are straight forward country and others cross over to more of a folk-rock sound. I loved every minute of everyone of these songs and this is by far one of my favorite albums of the year so far.
