I listened to Dwight Yoakam’s complete Reprise Record collection driving at work and on the ride home. It’s safe to say he’s one of my favorite artists of all time in any genre. His backing band is incredible.

I listened to this on the way to work. I hated this song when it came out. Now I love it, and hot damn that bass line before the chorus.

I’ve done a complete 180 on REM in the past 5 years.
So I’m watching the video and I notice Peter Buck is playing an upside down left handed Fender Jagstang, which was created in honor of Kurt Cobain. The album Monster was originally going to be called Blow Your Face Off or something like that, but the band changed it because it was right after Cobain killed himself.
What I’m getting at is, you suppose the left handed JagStang was a subtle nod?
Maybe it’s a Mustang but Cobain played those. So did Liz Phair hubba, hubba.
