He deserved an Oscar nom for A Star is Born.

He still does not get the absolute respect and admiration he deserves.

He is probably the best song writer in America.

Totally agree with you. His song that Bradley Cooper sang was so much better than Shallow. Nothing against Lady Gaga but she's had much better songs than that.

I thought the same thing. Shallow is catchy, but Maybe It's Time has gravitas.

Andrew Combs's debut album, 'Worried Man', was rereleased recently and is worth a listen if you like Isbell's or similar music.

Speed Trap Town is my favorite of his. It is written the way that a really great short story might be, each verse a little vignette that doesn't spell everything out but says exactly what's needed to paint a very specific and real picture.


'Those 5A *******s run a shallow cross'

One of my favorite Isbell lines.
The preceding line of "It's Thursday night but there's a high school game/Sneak a bottle up the bleachers and forget my name" is just as good....
