4.0 out of 5 stars A Decent Country/AltCountry Gem, February 9, 2008

I think Amazon had originally called this CD Song of the Divided High. I don't see that anywhere on my CD. Instead, I suggested this just be a self-titled album.

This is very great country music, and some of the songs even have a cool western swing to them. Earl Butter's voice is just a straightforward country warbler, nothing special, nothing outstanding, in fact, it's almost unique in how plain it is. A southern accent without too much twangy inflection, which is the annoying thing about most modern day mainstream country. It's honest and pure.

I'm rediscovering this CD, but I must say that "Coffee and Beer" is one of my favorite songs on this CD. A great tune about the road and drinking coffee and beer. Again, honest and pure.

Recommended for those of you who just can't get enough "good" country music.

I'm just sad that the great Earl Butter and Wanda Tatters aren't together anymore. This band was one of the best. They're a part of the incestuous Ed's Redeeming Qualities world. I miss them both.
