This is a really good sounding recording from Outlaw Country Legend David Allen Coe. Sounds like it was ripped from a vinyl bootleg source. Joining David on this recording is none other than guitar wizard Warren Haynes. Fans of David hold this particular band in high regard, some going as far as saying that this is the best era of David's career. I must say I see this as one of many high water marks in a long career. If you love Outlaw Country, David Allen Coe or just good Country Music this boot should not be missed.

David Allen Coe is the living embodiment of Outlaw Country, having spent plenty of time in correctional facilities starting with reform school at age 9. Coe spent the next 20 years in and out of jail cells. He was convinced to start his career in music by none other than Screamin' Jay Hawkins who he spent time with in prison. He came to the attention of Country Music insiders by living in a hearse outside of the Grand Ole Opry. Soon he was writing hit singles for the like of Tanya Tucker Billie Jo Spears, and Johnny Paycheck. These hits furthered his own recording career. When the I.R.S seized his home in Key West, Florida, Coe moved into a cave in Tennessee! To paraphrase one of David's songs .. If that ain't outlaw country, I'll kiss your Ass.

In 1999 Coe met Pantera guitarist Dimebag Darrel Abbott, struck by the similarities between country music and heavy metal the 2 started to work on Rebel Meets Rebel a County Metal hybrid that was released 2 years after Dimebag's murder at the hands of a crazed fan of Pantera.
