Whiskeytown - Rural Free Delivery

Released in 1997 fresh on the heels of Stranger's Almanac, this now out of print E.P. is a collection of early recordings and was released by their first record label to try to capitalize on their major label debut. It also features some of Whiskeytown's (and Ryan Adam's) most "alt-country" songs to date. What that means is there's alot of punk in this here country (think Uncle Tupelo). Featuring 8 songs, a couple are alternate versions of songs available on the essential Faithless Street (Tennessee Square & Angels Are Messengers From God, which became the title track off Faithless Street)

1. Take Your Guns To Town
2. Nervous Breakdown
3. Tennessee Square
4. Captain Smith
5. Macon, Georgia County Line
6. Pawnshop Ain't No Place For A Wedding Ring
7. Oklahoma
8. Angels Are Messengers From God

  2. Super post of an "Old Ryan" EP. Track 7 "Oklahoma" cuts off after 8 seconds. Any chance of a re-up of this? If not, I still want to thank you for all your great "Alt" ups.
