Yes do it. This is very different from the DBTs stuff but better than any of their albums imo. And I adore them, so that's saying a lot!

I can tell this is going to be good. I loved his songs with the Truckers, especially Outfit and The Day John Henry Died.

Decoration Day t/t also ruled, as did Danko/Manuel. His first few solo albums were hit or miss on a song to song basis but this and the new one are stunning

Youre right about Decoration Day TT, that song rules too. I sometimes think Isbells songs were better than Hood's. Nobody is better than Mike Cooley though. Nobody.

Yeah I read that a bit ago, it's a nice list. "Cigarettes and Wine", "Alabama Pines", and "Codeine" could also fit on that list.

Cover Me Up gets me every time

"So girl leave you boots on the bed / We ain't leavin' this room / Till someone needs medical help / Or the magnolias bloom"

Perfect

And Hood is pretty amazing, but yeah Isbell is probably better overall

album is full of fantastic lyrics



'Not for me to understand

Remember him when he was still a proud man

A vandals smile, a baseball in his right hand

Nothing but the blue sky in his eye'



and the preceding verse from relatively easy gets me everytime

If I'd fucked her before she got sick / I'd never hear the end of it / She don't got the spirit for that now

Gets me every time.
