Strangely enough, I can understand that. I still can't bear some of his renderings on that album, but that is definitely the only plausable explanation I have heard defending that album. I have a similar opinion about the first self titled album. I love it becuase he sounds like he wants it so badly. I have'nt heard too many albums with that kind of grit. It's really good hillbilly grit, too-makes me want to stomp my foot and yell and scream...
