That's the thing about the Turnpike Troubadours: they've exuded a patience and steadiness that has put them steadfastly in touch with the underlying spirit of country music. If they wanted to pivot just slightly and go some big rock route, they could blow up huge. But they didn't and they don't ,and they still blew up huge. This isn't old country. This is new country, only the roots are still attached, and the branches fan out wide.
