Daily Jam - These Arms

I've always had a soft spot for Dwight Yoakam, so here's a song from the man.  Listen to "These Arms" below, our Daily Jam.

Daily Jam - Ain't that Lonely Yet

I am not much of a fan of modern country music from the last 30+ years, but i make a wholehearted exception for the work of Dwight Yoakam.  He was always a little too rock n' roll for country radio and a little too country for rock radio, and it suits him perfectly.  Here's "Ain't that Lonely Yet," a track i'm led to believe is about Sharon Stone, and our Daily Jam.

Daily Jam - Nothing

Too rock n' roll for country and too country for rock n' roll, Dwight Yoakam has always swum in those old rockabilly waters that essentially helped birth both scenes, and i love him for it.  Here's "Nothing," a ballad from 1995's "Gone," and our Daily Jam.

Dwight Yoakam covers Prince

Dwight Yoakam is a badass, and i will fight to the death anyone who claims otherwise.  The "too-country-for-rock-radio, too-rock-for-country-radio" troubadour has been meshing old school country music, rockabilly, bluegrass, folk, and rock n' roll together for decades, penning and covering classics along the way.  On his upcoming "Swimmin' Pools, Movie Stars..." LP, the legend covers another legend, turning Prince's "Purple Rain"  into a folky ballad...and it works!  Listen below and get the album from Sugar Hill Records.
