Drive-By Truckers – Greatest Hits 1998–2009 (2-LP Clear Vinyl)
Assembling a greatest hits collection for a band whose albums function as cohesive statements required careful curation, and this Black Friday exclusive clear vinyl delivers the essential Drive-By Truckers tracks from their first decade of prolific output. From early classics through the Jason Isbell years to the ambitious post-departure period, Greatest Hits 1998-2009 surveys the evolution of America's finest chroniclers of Southern complexity.
The clear vinyl pressing adds visual distinction to a collection that spans Southern Rock Opera's breakthrough, Decoration Day's arrival, The Dirty South's ambition, and the resilience of Brighter Than Creation's Dark. Each era contributed songs that entered DBT's permanent setlist—the guitar anthems that close shows, the quiet devastations that silence crowds, the drinking songs that get entire venues singing along.
For listeners intimidated by DBT's extensive catalog, Greatest Hits provides the entry point. For longtime fans, this limited Black Friday pressing offers a conversation-starting centerpiece and the pleasure of hearing the highlights sequenced for maximum impact.
