I think it’s the driving, unrelenting steel guitar that I love so much on that cut.

Also, while it’s not Top 10 material, I thought his cover of ZZ Top’s “I’m Bad, I’m Nationwide” was great.

Kudos for including “Thinking About Leaving.” I remember “Crazy Little Thing Called Love” got all the attention from that hits package, but this was the song that really did it for me.

Impossible to choose 10 tracks, but I would have taken anything from This Time, Gone and Tomorrows Sounds Today. I did not like Suspicious Minds (I’m an Elvis fan), I did not think it was up to Dwight’s usual standard. “The Back of Your Hand” kills me. Dwight sings Country Music for grown ups!

He is one of the greatest singer songwriters of our time.

To this day that’s my favorite Yoakam record. Still a great list.
