FrankbLoose Aw, jeez, just impossible to pick a favorite track off this record. In 2004, there was not a better set of songwriters than Cooley, Hood, and Isbell. A band at the top of it's game on this record and every song has something to say. Favorite track: Carl Perkins’ Cadillac.

Yimmy Kil Even though I prefer others albums in their catalogue to this one I cannot deny start to finish it is their very best. I love they went back and put this together in the way they did. Makes it even better. Love the fact they added TVA which is one of my very favorite DBTs songs. Favorite track: TVA.

declawedboys This is my favourite song from the original album; when I listened to both side-by-side I was blown away by how much better the little changes in mixing here make an already classic song! Favorite track: Danko / Manuel.

about

In 2004 the Drive-By Truckers released what would become the best selling album in their illustrious catalog. The Dirty South is a concept album that examines the state of the South, and unveils the hypocrisy, irony, and tragedy that continues to exist. The album features live show staples like, “Tornadoes”, “Where The Devil Don’t Stay” and “Puttin’ People On The Moon” as well as rarities like “Goode’s Field Road” and “Daddy’s Cup.”

The Complete Dirty South is a band-led rework of the original album. Principal member, Patterson Hood, took the reins and reimagined this record as it was originally intended. The complete version features resequenced audio, three additional tracks, four remixes along with updated vocals. The packaging comes with a perfect bound book featuring liner notes from Patterson Hood, track by track descriptions from Mike Cooley and Jason Isbell as well as never before seen photos along with updated artwork from the late Wes Freed.

“This ‘Director’s Cut’ is the way it was always intended to be heard” - Patterson Hood
