    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.

    It's not hard to call Dwight country, it's hard to call country fuckin Taylor Swift)

    It's hard to call him "country" because that implies so much bad twangy pop crossover stuff now...he's just Dwight Yoakam. And whatever style of music it is that he plays is fucking awesome.
