    I'm a huge Whiskey Myers fan although that's more red dirt/southern rock than country i guess.

    Thats a bit of an overreaction. Traveler was great, his music with the Steeldrivers is great, he still has some pretty good songs and he's a hell of a guitar player imo.

    Steak Night at the Prairie Rose is one of my favorites. Mike wrote it and said its 100% true up to the last verse (because his dad is actually still alive)

    They’d honor Xxxtentacion before Prine when you consider where country music is right now.

    That’s sad because I promise the bet hip hop awards would honor Nas before they honored 21 savage. Legends are legends man and it’s shameful that the country establishment doesn’t see it that way

    When you're an industry filled with jerkoffs wearing sparkly jeans singing ghost written songs how can you pay homage to a guy that wrote Sam Stone, ya know?

    For any Willie fans there is a new podcast called One By Willie hosted by John Spong where different musicians like Lyle Lovett, Lee Ann Womack, Jack Ingram, and others each have their own episodes where they pick a Willie song and do a deep dive.

    I’ve particularly enjoyed going further into 1960s pre outlaw Willie since so much of his mythology is around the outlaw years.

    I particularly enjoyed relearning that ON HIS FIRST ALBUM there was a three stretch song of

    Hello Walls
    Funny How Time Slips Away
    Crazy

    !

    He’s just the best.

    huh. I really didn't think Stapleton's album was too bad, and I'm not a huge Stapleton guy myself. might have to give it a more critical listen.

    I didn't hate it either. It's not Traveller or among my favorites of the year to be sure, but I didn't think it was awful or anything.

    The wife asked me to put together a wish list of some vinyls I'd like for Christmas. Nothing hard to find or expensive as we are saving to buy a house next year. I was thinking some newer release stuff. Any suggestions?
    I have all of Sturgill's stuff except High Top Mountain. Definitely going to put 1 or 2 Tyler albums on the list. Same with Ryan Bingham.
    Figured I'd put together a list of maybe like 15 of so and let her pick whichever couple she wants and surprise me.
