Twenty years after their acclaimed debut, Poor Little Critter on the Road, The Knitters are back putting their spin on country and rock songs on the album, The Modern Sounds of The Knitters. The group performs a rockabilly version of "Born To Be Wild," but they keep it old-fashioned country on "Give Me Flowers While I'm Living." The track "Rank Stranger" starts out as folk and ends with a strong rock sound. No matter the style, The Knitters' sound is deep rooted in American music. Poor Little Critter on the Road is an album for anyone interested in hearing the roots of modern music.
