Southern Culture On The Skids (SCOTS), another of my favourite bands. They've been around for nearly 30 years and covered a lot of great tunes in their own unique white trash/redneck/hillbilly way.
Here are 22 of the original songs.
@My Way I didn't know either, at least for some of them. They master the art of covering a song without making it sound like a cover at all. Glad you liked the mix!
Nope, the Cramps did a LOT of covers. There was a series of compilations called "songs the Cramps taught us", that's where I got the idea for this mix and the Cheater Slicks one!
Saw them in Denver one night around the time of Dirt Track Date. Toward the end of the show they brought out buckets of fried chicken and threw pieces into the crowd. Good show! On to the mix...
you didn't answer the question of if ppl ate the chicken or not :P i'm just curious, it sounds yummy and unsanitary at the same time,..i don't know if i would personally
bummer dude :( at least you were there. and i agree with mr. ogun, trying to catch food thrown at you DOES sound like a cool way to eat!! :) now to see if i can find pictures of this phenomenon!
same here! and @ogun, i'm surprised you got anything to publish at all, i've been having trouble the past couple of days. it won't even let me play this mix but i'm going to try again

I just saw them in Austin in April WITH Wanda Jackson. It was really amazing! SCOTS was so good too, as well as their new material! Merci!

Oh damn, I didn't realize "Primitive" wasn't by The Cramps!

are you talking about t rex? are you for real?! wow, what an experience!! did people eat the chicken?
⃠cactusdoink btrxz June 29, 2012
No, I was talking about SCOTS. Now, T Rex throwing chicken, that WOULD be an experience!!

Trying to catch food thrown at you sounds like a cool way to eat ;)
⃠Ogun June 29, 2012
I suppose T-Rex would do that with fried dinosaur instead of chicken.
⃠cactusdoink btrxz June 29, 2012
I do believe, auntie, that people were eating the chicken before it hit the floor.
⃠aunt13 June 30, 2012
yeah man, i would totally do it
⃠cactusdoink btrxz July 06, 2012
Alas, although I had a decent vantage point, I went hungry that night.

For some reason, I couldn't order the tracks the way I intended to, they keep messing up... nevermind, enjoy anyway!
⃠mollielarue June 27, 2012
Oh, whatever. It's great - I wish you were my personal DJ!

⃠aunt13 June 28, 2012
the opener is awesome, doesn't sound like the reordering went against you
⃠Ogun June 28, 2012
It's ok now! It was kind of weird yesterday, I had some "missing uploads" and some tracks that wouldn't play... but everything's back to normal!
⃠Ogun June 28, 2012
Thanks for your kind words, Mollie and Auntie!!
