There’s the bro-country music that gets played on commercial radio stations (pickup truck + six-pack of beer + girl in shorts = Top 10 Hit), and then there’s real country music. Jim Lauderdale is the real deal. His new album I’m A Song is fantastic, right up there with the best stuff from George Jones, Merle Haggard and other real country artists.
Check out these two tracks from the album.

I’ve been kissed by Mr. Lauderdale… twice. He’s a peach and yes, this album is pretty darned peachy, too.
