In the early 1990s, Confederate Railroad, who previously served as backing band for David Allen Coe and Johnny Paycheck, carried the torch of outlaw country (with a touch of Southern rock) into an era defined by slick commercialism. Their rough-hewn sound and bad-boy attitude, typified by hits like "Trashy Women" and "Time off For Bad Behavior," were a breath of fresh air when their 1992 self-titled debut arrived. There must have been plenty of people waiting for deliverance from Nashville slickness, as the album notched six hit singles and went multi-platinum.
Entertainment Weekly (5/29/92, p.65) - "..a long-overdue dose of good humor, vivid writing, and grungy blues chords--Southern outlaw music for the '90s.." - Rating: B
