Nice to see the Truckers get some love. I guess Uncle Tupelo would have to be my favorite of this genre but I love the Truckers, Son Volt, and Wilco too (although Wilco hasn't really fit this label since the release of AM or possibly Being There). The only Whiskeytown I own is Faithless Street, which I really like a lot. Haven't heard any of their other stuff yet. I really like Ryan Adams' Heartbreaker album too (although, admittedly, it's not as hard rockin' as most of the bands we're talking about).
Some of Mark Knopfler's recent stuff is some really great stuff that could be lumped in with this genre too. Definitely worth checking out. His three most recent solo albums are all great (his first one is pretty good too).
Any of you ever checked out Jason & the Scorchers? Pick up or check out samples of Rock On Germany if you get a chance (recorded live in Germany in '85 or so). Some great stuff.
