    Interesting that Darius would cover DAC, given Coe’s history of recording some very racist songs (I can separate the man from the music though, I do own one of his hits collections). Oh and since when is anything recent by Big & Rich not a misstep? Thanks for the pub.

    William Lee Golden gets my vote for the most iconic facial hair in country music.

    George Jones’ sideburns get my vote. Iconic directional sideburns for sure …

    Conway Twitty’s sideburns come to mind….yep William Lee Golden’s beard is iconic. Hank Jr’s beard due to his falling accident back in the day. Tim McGraw looks better with the goatee than without (in movies).

    William Lee Golden and Leon Russell might nullify each other. Charlie Daniels’ beard is pretty much a part of his persona and you can’t discount Charlie Rich’s burns.

    The article on The Byrds’ “Sweetheart of the Rodeo” album is excellent. Thanks for the link.

    Trailer’s Alt. country album cover revisions are a hoot as usual. My favorites are Angel Band and Lucinda Williams…..

    For current male country artists with facial hair, Jamey Johnson’s beard is quite unique. In the bluegrass realm Cherryholmes family band patriarch Jere has a hillbilly beard second only to William Lee Golden. In concert Jere always makes the comment: “In answer to the two most common questions I’m asked: 1.) Yes the beard is real, and 2.) No, you may not tug on it!”. (lol)

    “…receiving the scorn of honesty for alt-country day” I love it!!!

    Fred Young’s (Kentucky Headhunters) sideburns were pretty darn scary back in the band’s heyday. I think they may have reached his elbows at one point.

    Lots of good facial hair choices so far and don’t forget David Allan Coe’s gnarly chin dreads.

    Does anyone remember when Vince Gill shaved his head? I kinda liked that look :)

    There should be a Facial Hair Hall of Fame so these guys could donate their beards after they die.

    Best facial hair-James Otto. Not too little, not too much, just right.

    Rick’s Random Tidbits:

    OPRY ALERT!!! On Saturday night’s GAC video broadcast the segment will include The Carolina Chocolate Drops! All you 9513er’s that like Old Crow Medicine Show will like this bunch as well. Hopefully Rhiannon will sing their string band’s stylized version of a Beyonce song where her vocals are pretty darn amazing. On their previous Opry debut that song brought a standing ovation. If you don’t catch it live, be sure to catch one of the GAC “Opry Live” rebroadcasts.

    PS – Its too bad The Tennessee Mafia Jug Band isn’t also on the GAC broadcast segment rather than The Whites. They sound a whole lot more interesting…….

    Actually, FFYRTP is the perfect Big and Rich song, because you know that inside their heads they are that song’s protagionist.
