THE BOTTLE ROCKETS remain one of the most steel-solid bands amongst the greatest of rural-rock trailblazers. The St. Louis, Missouri outfit long regarded and adored as *the* workingman's rock band hit a high water mark at this performance recorded in Heilbronn, Germany on July 17, 2005.
"Get Down River," which was featured on the PBS television series "The Mississippi River of Song," is the lead track on their "Leftovers" album. A CD of the concert is available from bottlerocketsmusic.

Sorry about my misinformation. I never knew anything about their connection to Brooklyn

@eltatero was always a fan of the T 60 - that neck was slicker n goose shit and great tone :)
-
The real deal!!
-
I love the Peavey T15. It was the last affordable American-made electrics... and it had a killer nice neck.
-
Great band, love the almost military sounding snare drum....
-
Love theses guys. Real music by real people for real fans.

@grifftrain The Bottle Rockets did in fact record The Brooklyn Side in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Read the album booklet.

@grifftrain No problem with the nitpicking but the Bottle Rockets did relocate to Brooklyn and they played at the "Coyote Recording Studio" in Williamsburg, Brooklyn in 1994 to record "on the Brooklyn Side." They stayed at producer Roscoe Ambel's apartment in Brooklyn. Most recently, the Rockets worked with Ambel at his "Cowboy Technical Services Studio" to record Lean Forward in 2009 - - also located in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.

@dennis789111 ...I know this is nitpicking, but I dont think they ever moved to Brooklyn. The Brooklyn Side is a bowling term. They hail from Missouri. I never read anything about them relocating to Brooklyn. Anyway, they are a great group, and Im glad to see you into them. They were part of the "Uncle Tupelo" groups, as were Wilco and son Volt, who are great groups too.

Another one of America's finest overlooked bands.

I got turned onto these guys when they moved to Brooklyn in the 90's and released "On the Brooklyn Side" and I've followed them ever since.Rock n' Roll lives with good old fashioned "roots rock." I also love the Drive-by Truckers.
