Your are in for a treat. I've seen him several times and the man is a consummate professional. His set list always includes great covers. As for albums, I agree with the recommendation of "A Man Under the Influence." "Bourbonitis Blues" and "Real Animal" are also excellent. Have a great time.

^^^ Maybe. But I think it was more of addition by subtraction -- I'm looking at you, the former Mrs. Isbell.

^^^ It is great. So is "Country Feedback," the song that precedes it.

Today I can't get "Locator" out of my head. All day. And it's awesome.

I saw Matthew a few years ago at City Winery in Chicago. He sounded great, but looked horrible. Until he started singing, I wasn't sure it was him! Of course, I don't look so hot myself.

^^^ It will happen. It always happens.

The Handsome Family

^^^ Did you go see the movie?

It kind of begs the question why the Anthem is played before all sporting events from the high school through the professional level. I've got no problem with it, but it's odd that the ritual is linked to sporting events. They don't play the Anthem before court is called to order. it's not played before congress is convened or before POTUS delivers a speech. Why sports? Seriously. And what happens before every Blackhawks home game is far more disrespectful and unpatriotic than what Kapernick has chosen to do.

Started both "The Night Of" and "Stranger Things" last night. I need two shows to keep me from watching the train wreck that the White Sox season has turned into.
