Dissecting "If You're Gonna Play in Texas" by Alabama
from Nashville Anthems: Dissecting 80s & 90s Country Music

This one has always had us screaming "Cotton-eye Joe!" from back the row, but is there something larger going on here about Alabama's posture toward the impending neotraditionalist wave? Hmm... let's open up this case and see what's inside.
