This soundtrack to the Matt Murphy–starring country mockumentary The Life and Hard Times of Guy Terrifico packs a surprising punch, almost making one imagine a universe where Guy Terrifico was a real artist and not just a Gram Parsons spoof. Murphy's reedy twang is perfectly suited to these tunes, from country-rocking covers of The Allman Brothers Band's "Midnight Rider" and the Grateful Dead's "Friend of the Devil" to the Wilco-esque ballad "I'm Only Make Believe."
