Drive-By Truckers - Ugly Buildings and Whores on CD

Description

"This compilation, like the 15-year catalog it samples, is as much short-story collection as it is song set; it's the perfect introduction to the band's Lynyrd Skynyrd-style triple-guitar brawls. If country music is, as Harlan Howard put it, "three chords and the truth," these guys are some kinda sweat-stained saints." - Rolling Stone Ugly Buildings, Whores, and Politicians: Greatest Hits 1998–2009 is a compilation album released by New West Records of songs from the first seven albums of the Drive-By Truckers discography. It was produced by David Barbe and "leads fans on an abbreviated journey of what the band has accomplished in their first 11 years." A fantastic introduction for those looking to discover what this band are all about, from gritty rock to southern soul and much more to boot.
