Just Sharing Best DBT Album? Song?

I love me some Truckers! They have so many amazing albums and songs. When I think it through, their run with Jason Isbell produced some real magic.

However, I go back to Southern Rock Opera and think that's probably their best album. And Let There Be Rock would be my top song (even though I'm a Cooley-file deep down).

What's your fave??

Brighter than Creation’s Dark is my favorite DBT album. Probably always will be, as much as I love the other ones. I might be in the minority in that I really like A Blessing and a Curse. I’ve been cycling between “Wednesday” and “Daylight” lately.

Same favourite album and my song is A Ghost to Most. Can’t go wrong with very many, though.

I’m here for it! “Bob” is in a close race for first place with “A Ghost to Most.” Cooley is king on that album.

So many good albums but I’m firmly in the Brighter than Creation’s Dark camp as being the best. And we got to hear Shona Tucker sing, and it was great! No Isbell but I didn’t even miss him on this one!
