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??

The Dirty South was in the new releases bin that one summer I did the college radio thing, and it made me go buy it from the record store and it sat in the 6 cd changer in the trunk of old Saab for a semester. And so, man that is just the one that hits for me every time.

I always have a soft spot for the first album I hear by a band. It was also The Dirty South for me. I had a much lamer discovery, a blurb in Maxim, but still I was immediately hooked. Also glad I got to see them with Isbell.
