The Dirty South is the sixth album by Muscle Shoals, Alabama-based Drive-By Truckers. While previous Southern rock bands have celebrated certain regional mythologies, this quintet revels in the towering glory of small, gritty realities. They can kick up a righteous storm, as on the country lick-filled opener "Where the Devil Don't Stay," or the swamp and fuzzy "Lookout Mountain." However, within the latter is a daunting verse: "If I throw myself off Lookout Mountain, No more for my soul to keep, I wonder who will drive my car, I wonder if my Mom will weep." It's clear these guys deliver emotional wallops at every turn. "Carl Perkins' Cadillac" honors the honesty of Sam Phillips, while writhing in the melancholy of changing times and circumstances. --David Greenberger

3 out of 5 stars Good but not classic.......2007-05-18

I know that average reviews are not viewed as all that "helpful", but, like the previous reviewers from Indianapolis and Scotland, I thought I'd offer one anyway.

I went out and bought The Dirty South after I read the rave reviews on Amazon. From most of the reviews here, you would think that the Drive By Truckers rival the likes of Lynyrd Skynyrd, the Allman Brothers, and early ZZ Top. According to one reviewer, they are the "saviours of rock." IMO, that's going way too far. The DBT are probably more on par talent-wise with the VRoys (from the late 90s), the Old 97s, and the North Mississippi Allstars - all decent bands, all with a good deal of talent, but ultimately one Duane Allman or Billy Gibbons short (in other words, a long way away) from being the next great Southern rock band.

Still, the Dirty South is a pretty decent album. "Lookout Mountain", "Never Gonna Change" and "Where the Devil Don't Stay" showcase the DBT's driving, dense guitar sound. "The Day John Henry Died" and "Carl Perkins' Cadillac" show that the band can write good music to go along with their strong lyrics if they put their mind to it. And "Danko/Manuel" is a great, slow country song.

For me, the main problem with The Dirty South is when the band uses their music simply as background to their vocals, which is the case on nearly half the songs. Too few hooks or changes in tempo makes for a rather bland and repetitive listening experience after awhile. "Cottonseed" and "Daddy's Cup" are songs that do absolutely nothing for me because of this.

A decent album, yes. A classic? Far from it.

5 out of 5 stars Really dern good.......2006-12-26

A logical progression from Decoration Day to A Blessing and a Curse, the lyrical content is actually stepped up a notch by all three of the fellas on this one. It's hard to point out a lousy song here, and there are a handful that are truly works of art. Patterson- always a favorite, but the Cooley tunes on this disc really knock me out.
If ya love the other 2 I mentioned, you'll love this one too.

5 out of 5 stars DBT at their finest..........2006-12-21

I have a tendency to ramble on, so I'll just do a little breakdown of the album.

1. Where The Devil Don't Stay - 4/5
2. Tornadoes - 4/5
3. The Day John Henry Died - 4/5
4. Puttin' People On The Moon - 4/5
5. Carl Perkin's Cadillac - 4/5
6. The Sands Of Iwo Jima - 2/5
7. Danko / Manuel - 5/5
8. The Boys From Alabama - 4/5
9. Cottonseed - 3/5
10. The Buford Stick - 4/5
11. Daddy's Cup - 5/5
12. Never Gonna Change - 5/5
13. Lookout Mountain - 5/5
14. Goddamn Lonely Love - 5/5

All in all, this is a great album. The boys from Alabama don't disappoint...

5 out of 5 stars Thank God!.......2006-08-29

And just when I thought rock'n'roll was dead. DBT really are the savers of rock, they're all we've got now, and The Dirty South is simply amazing. Hard, fast, real, and most importantly fun, The Dirty South is an album to just shove in the cd player, and not have a need to skip a track. The perfect highway companion.

5 out of 5 stars top notch.......2006-08-01

the best band you've never heard of...my first taste of DBT - will certainly be going back for seconds, thirds,....

      Album Description

      “Broadway: Love & Laughter” is terrific. Singer/actress Eileen Mager performs twenty-three of the greatest songs from Broadway musicals in a way you won't soon forget. There are some real oldies, as well as more current songs, and everything from tear-jerkers to laugh riots. They have great lyrics (and you'll understand all the words) and great tunes. She'll have you laughing and crying and having a ball. Ellen Brown's accompaniments offer just the right touch -- for example, “Little Girl Blue” has a great blues sound to it. This is a CD not to be missed, and perfect gift for friends and family.

      Broadway musicals have always been about love in its infinite forms. This has resulted in a huge crop of wonderful love songs — joyous, sad, flirtatious, angry, passionate, mischievous, touching. They range from the deeply serious to the out and-out hilarious, as, come to think of it, does love itself.

      So in this recording, West Side Story's Maria proclaims her joy in “I Feel Pretty” and South Pacific's Nellie Forbush displays similar feelings in “A Wonderful Guy.”

      We also have Guys & Dolls's Adelaide singing “Adelaide's Lament” about the cold she's developed because of the frustration of a 14-year engagement to Nathan Detroit that seems destined never to result in a wedding.

      Pal Joey's Vera, a sophisticated “older” woman, who knows Joey isn't worth it, sings about finding herself nonetheless “Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered.”

      Of course, Kate of Kiss Me, Kate, in no uncertain terms, announces “I Hate Men,” while Oklahoma's irrepressible Ado Annie sings “I Cain't Say No.”

      On the Town's lady taxi driver, Hildy, tries to convince us of her total desirability with the madcap seduction of “I Can Cook, Too,” while Sally of Follies sings of her total immersion in her love in one of Broadway's most touching love songs, “Losing My Mind.”

      Album Description

      Haunting vocals, excellent acoustic guitar work, intelligent lyrics and original artwork makes this début album from guitarist/singer-songwriter/artist Nicolette Aubourg an album not to be taken lightly. An independent release recorded in Los Angeles and named after a street in the Hollywood Hills, it was co-produced by renowned engineer Steve Holroyd, and features some wonderful session musicians including Stefanie Fife (cello), Charlie Bisharat (violin) and Adam Chester (piano). Highly recommended especially for fans of Sarah McLachlan, Enya, Jewell, and Sinéad O'Connor.

      5 out of 5 stars Love Defined.......2006-05-29

      after hearing these songs I realized Nicolette is one of the few people in this world that knows the true definition of the word
      LOVE.

      5 out of 5 stars Canyon diva entrances.......2003-11-25

      This is the best work achieved to date by this excellent artist. Songs both hauntingly limpid yet at the same time, direct and forceful plus a level of muscianship not often attained by such a relatively young talent.
      'Big up' for the production too. Crisp and incisive with particularly good tonal dynamics.
      This talented lady has produced a tour de force. Flawless.

      5 out of 5 stars Beautiful beautiful music.......2002-12-12

      I am a care giver in Pasadena, California, USA. My sister gave me this CD recently when we had a quiet moment together. Now, whenever I come home from a really hard day, I make the house dark, light candles, slip into the bath with a glass of Merlot, and listen to these beautiful beautiful songs as sung by Nicolette Aubourg, as sung by one who has loved well, and often, and deeply.

      5 out of 5 stars Agreed! Lovely music, lovely artist, lovely album........2002-12-12

      My trainer gave me this album as a birthday gift earlier this year, and I keep telling her how wonderful it is. Thank you, thank you, thank you. She (my trainer) said that Nicolette Aubourg has a hauntingly beautiful voice, and I agree, but to me it is about the songs. They are so right on. I get them. This is the album that was written for me. I love it and highly recommend it to everyone. Nicolette, you go girl!

      5 out of 5 stars The best new album I have heard all year!.......2002-11-23

      Nicolette Aubourg's Grand View Drive is an outstanding album. Her songs are haunting, well crafted and memorable. She is also a brilliant guitar player, performer and singer. This is the type of album that does not come along very often!! I love it!!
