The Franklin County Trucking Company

The Death-Defying Adventures of...

(Tri-Nut Records)



Fcotco looses barnburning jolt with clod-kicking inclinations, and does so with assurance that can only be earned through hardscrabble toil. Figures associated bespeak hat-doffing timber. Members include Jim Rotramel and Taylor Sprehe of Number 9 Blacktops Rockabilly fame, Supersucker Eddie Spaghetti, and flat-out drum-killer Sean Hopkins. (Most tracks were penned by either Rotramel or Hopkins.) Additional luster is lent "Me and Mr. Pibb"  by erstwhile Del Lords plank-spanker Eric "Roscoe" Ambel. Owing to executive-level production, Fcotco's fourth release shouts with serrated definition.

Recommended: "Bless My Soul," "Shotgun Ghost," "Bobtail," "Truck Drivin' Rock'n'Roll Songs," "Raise Hell, Praise Dale!," "Ain't No Duke In Paducah," "Rollin' On," "Me and Mr. Pibb," "Work Hard, Be Humble"
