![Jason Isbell – Southeastern [album review]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/5005795_lg.jpg)
Its always nice to have a musician that you have grown to love over the years hit a pinnacle so high that you feel the need to stop and tell strangers about it on the streets. Similar to Patterson Hood's Heat Lightning Rumbles in the Distance or Phosphorescent's Muchacho , Southeastern is the work of one of my favorite musicians hitting a pinnacle so high that you'll soon finding yourself telling strangers about it as well. One of the first times I encountered Jason Isbell was back during the Decoration Day tour. During that [...]

hey, howdy, hi! ive been obsessing over the truckers for the past week or so, which is not a bad problem to have and it does happen quite often. when southern rock opera came out in 91 i was living in chicago, and while i loved the record i dont think i necessarily think i got the "southern" thing. granted i had been to the south, but not really experienced the south outside of touristy type places. it wasnt until i moved down here that i really started to get whatever "it" is. the songs definitely resonate more personally now [...]
Patterson Hood is responsible for this music blog existing. We've probably never told the story, but Woody and I met at a business event in Chicago where things like insurance, mortgage, real estate, home security systems, outsourced HR, search engine optimization or similar such bullshit was being discussed. I think we were both wearing slacks. As we were filling up our coffee cups, one of us asked the other what we were into in real life. "I like music" said the other. "What type of music?" asked the other. "Have you ever heard of Drive-By Truckers..." Have you [...]

16. Cory Branan – Mutt It seems like every review of Mutt talks about there being this style, then this style, then another, and what they never say is that every song on Mutt is incredibly well written.

The Sparklers – Crying At The Low Bar The review of this album generated a good bit of positive feedback. I was surprised people liked it [...]
