solace Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 fantastic record. has grown on me a ton (after being a TINY bit let down at first) Razor Town is so gorgeous. i love every song but Down In A Hole (which is ok, just not a good pic for the 2nd spot). Pfork gave it a pretty solid review today too surprisingly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
myboyblue Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 It's a great album. If there is any justice in the world, and there appears to be little, this will do very well. Buy it bitches. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
billboy73 Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 Yeah, I am enjoying this one right now! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Degenerex Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 I agree. This is one great album. Too bad the Truckers had to lose a great member in the meantime, but this makes it a lighter blow. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Willkoman Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 Jason's playing at a street fair Sunday afternoon (7/15) for free about a 10 minute drive from home. I'm hoping to pick up a copy of his new CD direct. It's in New London Ct. in the southeast corner of the state if anyone is interested. Some info in the link below. http://www.sailfest.org/stages.htm Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jimmyjimmy Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 Still haven't heard the entire record, however I'll pick up a copy at a in-store gig tomorrow at Plan 9 music in Richmond VA. and see him later that evening at the Canal Club. Can't wait for this! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
delmarkurt Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Razor Town is so gorgeous. Agreed....Good tune! I've always been a big fan of Isbell....good song writer. I look forward to seeing his upcoming FREE show in Madison. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
brianjeremy Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 I'm gonna have to pick this up. My lady loves him and his drive by truckers songs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
oatmealblizzard Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 New solo album Sirens Of The Ditch came out FINALLY!!! I love it...Chicago PromenadeDress BluesRazor TownHurricanes and Hand Grenades those are my favorites after the first few listens. What do you guys think?Yeah, I like it quite a bit as well. And I'd single out the exact same 4 songs as my favorites. I think those are really the standouts. Good stuff. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Orkie Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 It's no Salvation Blues, but it's not bad. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I love it...Chicago PromenadeDress BluesRazor TownHurricanes and Hand Grenades those are my favorites after the first few listens. What do you guys think? I'd definitely have to add Shotgun Wedding to that list. I finally got the CD yesterday (ordered it from Amazon on Tuesday when I couldn't find it anywhere near me). It was well worth the wait. I loved his DBT stuff, and I'm glad to hear a decidedly non-DBT sounding record. Dress Blues is still an incredible song, but I prefer the non-band version, the way he was playing it on tour with DBT with just him and a guitar. He did it acoustic and electric, and I think the solo/electric combo is by far the best. It's really an amazing and moving song. Jason really deserves a ton of success.
