Roots Rock, Vol. 1 [Fresh Tracks] (2000)

About this title: Fresh Tracks Roots Rock, Vol. 1 samples the Fresh Tracks roster of artists, who specialize in '90s Americana-type tunes with strong adult-alternative leanings, with some influence from neo-hippie jammers like the Dave Matthews Band. The production on this compilation generally sounds professional and polished -- sometimes crossing into the realm of slickness, which can detract from the roots-rock vibe -- but, overall, it's a good way for fans of this sound to discover some up-and-coming talent.
