All you DBT fans might wanna check this album out, cause it's an absolutely killer disc. Isbell was 1/3 of the Drive-By Truckers songwriting team for three albums before his departure from the band earlier this summer. This is his first solo album and it's one hell of a strong debut. "Chicago Promenade" might be my favorite song of the year so far.
Thumbs up!

this has been on steady rotation in my car and well, every other cd player i have. its one of my favourites of the year.
caught the toronto show lastnight at the elmo. man they tore it up. great, great performance. almost 2 hours of isbell + dbt tunes with a cover or two thrown in. not to mention the sound was great lastnight aswell.

I downloaded a copy of this a few months ago. Haven't seen it anywhere in stores though. Pretty decent album, it's too bad he won't be writing songs with the DBT's anymore.

Speaking of the DBTs, are they gonna replace him, or are they just gonna continue as a foursome? I'm thinking they'll probably add somebody new to the lineup just to keep things interesting.
I'd love to find a copy, if someone would like to post a link or something.... I can't find it anywhere

Saw a blurb in the Buffalo News about Jason touring with Will Hoge, I'm going to the Buffalo show on Saturday! Anybody else going?
