So glad you liked the Jason Isbell. I think he is the best songwriter around right now. Amazing lyrics. He was a member of drive by truckers for a few albums but has been solo for awhile now. Highly recommend his new album something more than free. Best album of the year. Enjoyed reading your review.

If you want to check him out further, I'd also look into his album Live in Alabama. It's got some of his Drive-By Truckers stuff (including a great version of "Danko/Manuel", still probably the best song he's written) and most of his best solo material. He's released a bunch of albums but they're all pretty inconsistent other than the latest two.

Yeah I must say I was very impressed. I like a singer/songwriter who can engender those emotions in me, and in my opinion Country singers (good ones) seem to have the best handle on it.

Re: Elliott Smith. I think I'm right when I say the album I listened to was okay, but I just did not get the worship that this guy gets here from that album. Perhaps the next one will change my mind. I don't believe I said it was a bad album, just an okay one, but not one that made me think "Oh my god why have I not listened to this before?" or "This guy is God", which seems to be the general concensus here among certain people. That was all. Anyway, we'll see.

It's not been fully updated yet. Gimme a break: I have, on the go at the moment, this, in terms of both albums and tracks, my new 1001 Metal Albums journal, my new Theme Park journal, Trollheart reviews albums nobody cares about, as well as my usual journals and all the other threads I'm working in at the moment. To say nothing of being hip-deep in Metal Month III reviews!

Like it says in my sig...

Alright I have a few more tracks for you






(the length on this one cool? I'm very interested in your thoughts on it, and I decided not to use a longer song from the same album)
