Top 10 Alt-country bands

Attached is an URL for an interesting article in the Dallas paper about the Alt-country sub-genre. I really like most of these bands. If you don't dance to the Gourds, you don't have a spine. I would add Alejandro Escovedo and Steve Earle to this group. Any other alt-country artists of note?

Jerry Jeff Walker (live) is the first I heard sneaking into my otherwise rock and roll circle back in the 70's.  
I agree with the Byrds and Jayhawks, great bands. I ended up with a good many JL Lewis albums- Jimmy Swaggart's cousin I think, piano playing fool!
