Alan Jackson "Good Time" One More in A Long Line of Number one Country Songs.
Alan Jackson's latest single, "Good Time" has lit a fire on the charts, and its no wonder. Jackson's Trademark is his simple and earnest songs that make it impossible not to sing-along to.
You can't even begin to talk about Georgia Music without a solid mention of Alan Jackson. The CMT generation seems to have left roots country on the side of a gravel road, but Alan Jackson refuses to let go of the reigns as he once again shows that theres a market for real country music.
I started going through his music and am absolutely amazed at the songs he's done, and he wrote most of them.
Here's a list of Alan Jackson's Singles
Pull up a chair. This might take a minute or two to go through these.

Good Times Alan Jackson
Licks-N-Sticks a wash: But still great fun
Fuel Injection - "Heavy Load" With Interview
The ThrillHammers - "Almost Gone"
Shufflejunkies - "8 Up With Da Blues"
What was supposed to be a day of great southern rock turned into a day of great Georgia rain. The gig was called before it really got going, though the first three bands on the side-stage did complete their set. I arrived during the beginning of the Shufflejunkies set and really enjoyed what I heard. They put on a good show.
I'm disappointed I didn't get to hear the Thrillhammers or Fuel Injection. I'm disappointed I didn't get more interviews for the podcast I'm wanting to do, or get more photos..... As my buddy said, a little more preparation would have done me some good.
I'm working on fixing the interview thing. I'll keep you up-to-date on that.
I wish I had been able to meet the Shufflejunkies. I wish I had recorded my conversation with The Thrillhamers' Wayne Bagwell while we were waiting (in vain) for the rain to end. All the guys in the Thrillhammers are great, I'm definately going to have to make it to a show soon.
Everybody we met was really nice. The Enlightenment Prodcutions people were great . I didn't have the 
passes ready at the gate, but everybody I talked to wanted to help, and made sure I got the credentials I needed.
The Buzz about Fuel Injection?
I overheard a few people talking about the battle of bands that set up the sidestage portion of the event. Evidently, everyone pretty much figured The Thrillhammers were going to take this fairly easily. They've been together forever and really have their stuff together. Evidently Fuel Injection, a relatively new band from Jasper came in and blew everybody away.
Fuel Injection did win the battle of the bands. They would have gone on last on the side-stage if the rain hadn't ruined the day. I had a chance to talk to the guys (my lone interview), so I wanted to share some of the highlights of that:
These guys are young and raw. But the songwriting is promising, and if they can compete live with the much more experienced bands they did, right now, give them a year or two. Jasper Georgia, if you've been wanting a hometown Rock Star, here's your chance for a whole band of them.

Rollin With Hightide Blues

I've been listening to Hightide Blues "Dreamin' Alone" off Love Come Easy for days, and I can't get that tune out of my head. I struggle to put them into a niche because they just play good Rock-N-Roll. Southern Style. "Dreamin' Alone" is one of those songs that gets better everytime you listen to it. But don't let the laid back vibe of "Dreamin' Alone" fool you. These guys ROCK.
Love Come Easy is one of those CDs you can listen to for years.
Don't just take my word for how good Hightide Blues are:
"Yesterday afternoon I caught the end of a set from an Atlanta-based
band called Hightide Blues, who play a rollicking, jangly, southern
brand of rock n’ roll. The band came to Bonnaroo after winning first
prize in a radio contest, and they were like kids in a candy shop,
jumping around stage and grinning from ear to ear. This sort of
enthusiasm is refreshing after seeing a bunch of shows from more
established artists, and can be powerful stuff. Best of luck to them." -
Nick Anderman, The Village Voice (New York) 6/15/08
Here's Hightide Blues' "Official" bio
Hightide Blues took the stage for the first time in 2006 and has
been gracing hundreds of stages for thousands of fans ever since.
Their sound is a throw back to southern rock with a modern twist
and an original delivery that's in a category of its own. With their
high-energy performances and huge fan base it's no surprise that
Hightide Blues has shared the stage with national acts such as
Sara Bareilles, Graham Colton, Jason Isbell, Matt Costa,
Donavon Frankenreiter, Sister Hazel, The Whigs, Dead
Confederate, Karl Denson, and many more.
Their delivery of acoustic and electric guitars with a hard-hitting
rhythm section has lead to sold out shows all over the Southeast
and won't be stopping there. Hightide Blues played Bonnaroo
2008 and are expanding their touring with shows throughout the
Midwest and up the East Coast.
In January 2008 Hightide Blues signed with Atlanta-based Bowe
Inc for management. In February 2008 Hightide Blues recorded
their second EP "Love Come Easy" with producer Richard
McLaurin at House of David Studios in Nashville, where music
legends Elvis, Neil Young, B.B. King, Joe Cocker, and Roy
Orbison recorded some of the most influential albums in music
history. The highly anticipated "Love Come Easy" is generating
excitement from fans and major record labels alike. Being labeled
the fastest up and coming band in the Southeast, Hightide Blues
is following in the footsteps of the many music legends who
graced the very same studio, and anything is possible for this
band as they tour the country picking up momentum and fans
along the way.

Okay, I admit it. I wasn't really a huge fan of "Holler Back" from The Lost Trailers, but the more I hear it, the more I like it. I was a fan of "Country Man", but I guess it just had to sink in. I'm putting their new CD titled (appropriately enough) "Holler Back" on the list of "gotta haves" this summer.
The Lost Trailers : Georgia Band Gets Ready For Big Summer of "Holler Back"
This really is the summer of Georgia music, and The Lost Trailers are just another example. Here's more info about the band:
Lost Trailers Band Bio:
Stokes Nielson and Ryder Lee were writing and producing music as early as high school in Alexandria, Virginia. Their first album together was the self-issued The Story of the New Age Cowboy in 2000. Initially, Ryder and Stokes worked with a bass guitarist and a drummer, forming a group known as Stokes Nielson & The Lost Trailers (later shortened to The Lost Trailers); the name was penned after the band's equipment trailers had been stolen for the third time.
At the time, one of the Lost Trailers, Stokes Nielson, was also working as a disc jockey for a radio station in Nashville, Tennessee. In 2000, after an interview with Willie Nelson, Stokes offered him a demo version of The Lost Trailers' material; Nelson immediately offered the band an opportunity to play at Nelson's annual Fourth of July picnic, which he held in Texas. Stokes assumed the role of songwriter and guitarist, with Ryder serving as keyboardist and vocalist. The Lost Trailers' membership was finalized with Stokes' younger brother, Andrew, as keys player, Jeff Potter as drummer, and Manny Medina as bassist. The band then gained a following throughout the Southeast and Texas, performing more than 200 shows yearly.

Colt Ford burning up Myspace Charts
CMT is trying as hard as they can not to play Colt Ford more often, and its no wonder. He is the closest thing to real country music on that network, I don't care if he's rapping. Of course, they're trying to sell you on Colbie Caillat and an an old Michael Buble song (not that old) as country, so what would you expect in the 3 hours they play videos each day.
As much as I hate myspace, you can't discount its ability to tell you what's really going on with music. Its definitely not perfect, but the kids love that thing, and Colt Ford is the # 8 Indie artist on the country myspace charts, and on the way up. The people are trying to tell you something, CMT
Colt Ford Vs Sugarland - Tomorrow on CMT:
Now that I've thrown CMT under the bus, I'm going to ask you to watch it tomorrow @ 11a.m. and vote for Colt Ford (or Sugarland, they're a Georgia band too) during Power Picks.
