Longhaired Redneck 1976 Album

David Allan Coe

1975's Once Upon A Rhyme brought the Rhinestone Cowboy era of DAC to a spectacular close, so he returned less than a year later behind an even wilder persona, typified by the boisterous title track. Probably his best album in that it seamlessly melds traditional country with Southern Rock and all of the outlaw threads which previously weren't expressed all that clearly. Plus, "Dakota The Dancing Bear" is a great novelty song. Definitely one of the most essential albums from the Country genre.
