Doublewide and Live [Bonus Tracks] (2006)

While Southern Culture on the Skids have been making good-to-great records since 1991's Too Much Pork for Just One Fork, their real strength has always been as a live act, and anyone who has seen them on-stage knows a typical SCOTS show is a sweat-soaked frenzy of roaring guitars, pounding drums, manic dancing, and fried chicken flying through the air.
