Agreed.
Back in the day the stuff from Alabama was considered by many to be country/rock - but listening to it today sounds like oldtime traditional country music compared to the 'new country' on the radio.
Steve Earle really bridged the gap between rock and country. I remember seeing him in concert during his Guitar Town tour at the Diamond Club in Toronto...it was great. They used to call him the Missing Link.
