Help - identification required please!

Hi all, would appreciate some help!!!
I went to see Ross Noble last night at our local venue & there was an album playing for 1/2 hour or so before the show & during the interval.

It was an album of country & western covers - all seemingly done quite tongue in cheek! The friends I was with all seemed to comment how listenable it was. Wouldn't mind getting myself a copy as it's certainly a bit different!
The tracks I heard (& can remember) were:

Paranoid
Brown Sugar
Monkey Wrench
Tainted Love

Sorry it's a bit sketchy, but 2 1/2 hours of Ross Noble does tend to cook the mind!

Any help much appreciated!

More bluegrass than country but it could have been "Hayseed Dixie" (bad pun I know)

My experience with this type of thing is that it is amusing for about 2 plays, then it gets shelved.

Thanks Huwg, I had a bit more of a root around on Youtube & found the band. They're called Iron Horse.

Like you say, it'll probably wear a bit thin after a few plays but it's certainly different & still makes me laugh!!!
