Dwight Yoakam "I Got You" - Single Of The Day

Greetings from Asheville, where the good music flows, and we’re back (finally!) with new entries in our regular remembrances of the great hits of yesterday and the vintage albums of the past.  Today’s Single Of The Day is from Dwight Yoakam.

“I Got You” is today’s Single Of The Day.  It was released on Reprise Records in February, 1989, and would make it’s Country 40 debut in March.  The single became Dwight’s ninth top ten hit, climbing as high as five on the charts.

The single contained a harder edged Country sound that was prevalent on much of Dwight’s earlier work, showing the strong influence that the West Coast sounds that the likes of Buck Owens made famous, had on him.  Up tempo, good sound.

Your thoughts?

Saving vinyl, one record at a time.
