Old Crow Medicine Show

I passed by a record store advertising "Old Crow Medicine Show" and, feeling a bit indie at the moment, popped in. The early album from O.C.M.S. entitled "Greetings from Wawa" (2000) has been reissued after seven years of lying dormant. This is the album that you always heard about but never heard. I think it's limited edition, so get it if you feel like it.

This album does not contain "Wagon Wheel." It does, however, contain several tracks of people shouting "Play 'Wagon Wheel.'" I think I can hear Willie tell Ketch, "I hate that song," but it's an old album, so the sound is fuzzy.
