This week sees the release of Country Got Soul, a compilation of classics by a crop of swampy redneck hepcats that included TONY JOE WHITE, DAN PENN, EDDIE, DONNIE FRITTS, LARRY JON WILSON – and even the great CHARLIE RICH. Assembled by singer-songwriter Jeb Loy Nichols for DJ Ross Allen's new Casual label, it features sleevenotes by RBP Editor BARNEY HOSKYNS, along with a 1969 swamp manifesto by Atlantic Records kingpin JERRY WEXLER. We reproduce both of them here.
