Song of the Day

Old Crow Medicine Show- Old time music with new ideas

I Hear Them All- The Old Crow Medicine Show- I don't know a whole lot about OCMS except that they've opened a lot of shows for Gillian Welch who is my 2nd favorite country singer, next to Tammy Wynette.

It's self evident that OCMs is a young group of very talented musicians. Maybe if we were living in 1963 instead of 2009. I Hear Them All might have come from the pen of Bob Dylan. It's been a damn long time since somebody has written a socially relevant song that is so good I get a lump in my throat and a tear in my eye listening to it. The song and video pack a real wallop in these times of political apathy. The song is dedicated to the people of New Orleans where the video was filmed.

Good luck to Old Crow Medicine Show...we need more bands with new ideas, particularly in the world of country music which has become the stronghold of Babylon over the past couple of decades.
