California country can’t forget about the Byrds “Sweetheart of the Rodeo” and then Gram Parsons, Flying Burrito Brothers. Those were the groups that made country cool again, and rebellious again along with Merle, Buck, Joe Maphis, etc. the bucked that clean Nashville crooner sound going at the time with huge backing orchestra tracks, horns, etc., and they just made it twang and sang! Electrified baby! Telecasters, pedal steel, bass, and pump’n that snare and bass drum, with the occasional fiddle lighting the track on fire! Can’t forget the soaring vocal harmonies either! I have to say as a lifelong country fan and musician Chris has something real legit going on here!!!
Amazing. That solo work on Rambling Fever shows why Shifty's the professional he is. And West Coast Town is a modern Americana classic. Brilliant fucking song.
