    Wow. I just heard this guy (Guitars, Cadillacs, Etc., Etc.) for the first time and he's completely changed my perception of country music. This is great.

    I like a lot of artists, even a bunch of mainstream acts, notably Dierks, Miranda, Gary Allan, Vince. But I just rediscovered DW's "This Time" and I have to say he is my #1 favorite. This cd is flawless and I can't stop listening! This is Country, folks. Sounds even better than it did when it came out. I got his first 2 records on vinyl back in the day and fell for him. I didn't keep up w/ him so I'm playing catch up. Best there is. Rock on, Dwight.

    One of the better actor/musicians as well. He was great in The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada.

    A true old-school rock 'n' roller; I don't care what his clothes and his twang say otherwise. He's a genuine badass.
