1. There's actually a lot of more left-wing themes...

...in alternative country. Check out the Bottle Rockets or Jemerson Mosley or Steve Earle.

2. Here's Jemerson Moseley's page with two sample mp3s on it.
Edited on Thu Oct-28-04 10:12 AM by LoZoccolo
One of them's about Rush Limbaugh and the other's about the neocons. They also have a bio you can read on their main page where they talk about being blacklisted by the right-wing country music establishment.

Merle...Gosh I miss Waylon. :(

4. Mainstream country songs can be VERY Democratic
Songs about working people are OUR songs. Dolly's "Workin' Nine to Five" is THE working class song.
