My all time favorite song, I'm responsible for 5,000 of the 175,000 views...

😃

[@LisaLewis-p6h]

If this song doesnt touch your soul..You dont have one!

[@weston.weston]

Amen!

[@JustinAKADude]

I’m a metal-head at heart, but will ALWAYS stop what I’m doing to listen to this man sing!

[@kellyshelley9309]

Saw him live in Indiana last year. Been to over 200 concerts in my life. This was the best one I ever saw. Thank you for the best show ever!

[@cpresto2]

I'll never forget - one time I was having a hard mushroom trip and this video picked me up and laid me gently on the ground

[@80sRadDad]

I want more details… Did the song just happen to come on randomly or did you choose to listen to it?

[@write-to-recover]

@cpresto2 it's so poignant & meditative, especially the instrumental at the end, & it was written with such love & tender care with lines such as "that whole world's an old & faded picture in my mind / Am I, the last of my kind?"

[@snavarro228]

Who else agrees the name Sadler Vaden is badass?

[@mcbigham]

Sadler Vaden has a new CD coming out March 6th 2020.

[@georgecasagrand106]

Sadler F'in Vaden!

[@ryangoshorn2283]

Sadler Vaden also produces for Morgan Wade who is a bad ass in her own right

[@cfaubs7516]

I thank Yellowstone for bringing me to this amazing song!

[@learnedhand8559]

Two martins, two killer guitarists playing them, and one amazing song written by a genius. Heaven on earth here my friends. Peace to you all.

[@cmdennison]

...there is no better lyricist alive. Every word follows as if so obvious that you don't realize where he has taken you, till you are already there.

[@MichaelSmith-xk5dg]

Agree with you

[@jacobmoore3847]

Grew up in GA. Spent some time in the Navy. Got out and found myself in NYC going to college and could not relate more to this song.

[@write-to-recover]

I could write an essay on this song's themes and their effect on the listener. The reference to feeling old and out of place (I don't own a TV, follow sports, or care about celebrity culture) is totally relatable. "Nobody else here seems to care /They walk right past them like they ain't even there" makes me think about how people are always staring at their phones, not living in the present moment, being indoctrinated by celebrities' ideas and values, exposed to advertising 24 hours a day. "The family farm's a parking lot to Walton's Five and Dime" chokes me up every time. To me, the reference to "Walton's" (aka Walmart in the beginning) prompts me to think about our way of living and how it's changed since the 1950s, when the Walmart empire began ... the way our mom and pop businesses have been killed off by mega-chains, our beautiful landscapes overrun with Big Box stores and the warehouses necessary for a 24-hour shopping economy. During the lovely meditative instrumental at the end, I'm prompted to think of all the beauty still left in the world, all the small pockets of good neighbors still left, good humans serving their purpose and not just themselves. Thank you, @jasonisbellmusic, for this beautiful gift that gives so many of us comfort and peace.

The river can't take you back in time. Daddy wasn't a liar but I dont think he had the same struggles. The river is just familiar and sometimes that's not always good. Arkansas is a long ways away brother. Peace be the journey

[@MrRbrown0329]

Love that little jam at the end. The chemistry between these two is amazing

[@Mikescullymusic]

To that one guy who disliked this... What the hell were you thinking?

[@lastnamefirst4035]

He's the last of his kind

[@kevinedwards7892]

That's a lesson, if someone doesn't think we'll of you, know that some people don't even like beautiful things

[@ryangoshorn2283]

He hit the wrong button cause he couldn't see through the tears...

[@shanefernandes2935]

Tears Heal , Forgiveness Heals , Embrace's Heal and Yes Jason Isbell Heals , Thank you Sir

[@elmoblatch9787]

fuckin A

[@christophergraves8848]

I'm all for a Jason Isbell and Sadler Vaden acoustic tour. Amazing!

[@BIGJOHNSHVAC]

Reminds me of Dave Mathews and Tim Reynolds at Radio City.

[@paulwright4410]

amen to that

[@mikeelward5540]

Two years later, just saw a show that was just these 2 . Yes it was incredible

[@cpresto2]

Boutwell's Air Masters only it would be one dave matthews and two tim reynolds

[@ellencassidy7899]

@@mikeelward5540 lucky you!! I would LOVE LOVE to see just them! this gives me chills

[@80sRadDad]

Brought to tears EVERY TIME I come back!

[@scottay69]

Isbell’s voice is getting way better - wow.

[@SteveHewittMusic]

One of the best songwriters around

[@BlsBls-gr1ll]

“Old men sleeping on the filthy ground They spend their whole day just walking around And nobody else her seems to care They walk right past em like they ain’t even there” Man that is so true

[@jasper_north]

Bls192007 Bls its all true...

[@1coopjsn]

Such a beautiful song it almost hurts to hear it.

[@kathymack3791]

Damn but those boys can play.... and the lyrics Jason write - they just touch me down in my soul.

[@jenniferberry5445]

I heard this song about a month ago and felt like he was singing my song whoever wrote this there's at least one other left

[@erikkibler3466]

Such a sick song.love it

[@erikkibler3466]

Some slick picking too

[@scottay69]

Damn those Martins sound amazing.

[@billcharles9998]

GREAT song, made even better by the guitar solos alternating in the long coda to the ending. High art...

[@auditor05]

Daily trip for me....NY Port Authority to Wall St. stop on the number 3. Great song.

[@denisouellette1052]

Right through the heart

[@80sRadDad]

Keep coming back

[@Westernerd1]

Hiraeth...It describes a deep emotional state of nostalgia or melancholic yearning for an absent past place or someone most likely gone forever.

[@jonahbug1999]

This! Love this song, the message and these two...

[@chrisfavicchio6805]

That, folks is what's up! I too would love to see Jason and Sadler do an acoustic tour, but this will sure do fine for now!

[@zeeknollie]

Man that was a masterpiece.

[@zeeknollie]

I wish someone could get a good camera shot at his picken fingers!

[@jameskpolk]

He's flatpicking

[@zeeknollie]

I believe he is doing that hybrid picking.

[@jameskpolk]

You might be right...

[@mcopeland1834]

Yes Jason, you are

[@bryanbeck6673]

Damn dude! Get back to Chattanooga! This truly is fantastic!

[@basbh1782]

Better than the album version

[@gayluinstra1396]

I thought Lyle Lovett was my favorite country artist... I guess I have two favorites now!!

[@victorl.6128]

Had to come here, heard this on NPR minutes ago. Hit a chord.

[@80sRadDad]

Absolutely brilliant song and guitar work! Chills!!

[@ellencassidy7899]

Absolute. Perfection.

[@mattcaracciolo6282]

great guitar work

[@abbgt]

Wish Sadler's pickin' would get featured like this on record. Don't have to turn them into a jamband, but it seems like a big missed opportunity to not showcase a little more of this type interplay on record.

[@donalddingler1263]

a Amazing simply amazing

[@douglasholdenjr.45]

Agreed

[@douglasholdenjr.45]

Spot on!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@zeeknollie]

Beautiful.

[@bruceazumbrado5387]

Very nice!! Reminds me of Aztec 2 Step.

[@kevinsmith5510]

My only question is who are the 14 idiots at this moment who gave this a thumbs down. WOW.

[@sammyscotch9945]

Laughed when they gave me amphetamines, left me alone in a bad part of town. 36 hours to come back down (great imagery in this song)

[@terminallumbago6465]

I'm not a fan of country music, but I do love this song

[@jimwolabaugh3608]

Good thing this isn’t country

[@write-to-recover]

I don't consider him country. He calls himself Americana, folk, or Southern Rock.

[@jaspernewcomb5656]

just beautiful

[@tylergreene2878]

Reminds of "In spite of ourselves" John Prine, but this is so much more soothing

[@80sRadDad]

this gave me chills!

[@Texanrider76465]

BAD ASS!!

[@80sRadDad]

Amazing!!!

[@rhm01]

In fact he does remind me a bit of David Lindley who of course toured with Jackson Browne as a duo

[@kathymack3791]

Oh, yes, I remember David. I saw him perform with JB many years ago.

[@MsJLD1234]

Love his Birchmere t

[@jillydenmon9213]

love the Birchmere in Alexandria Va - SO many great shows

[@jlw1959]

Who else heard this on Yellowstone?

[@StSunrider]

Is he using a DADGAD tuning? The song is incredible- the more I listen to him, the more different things I hear.

[@jasper_north]

StSunrider no but looks downtuned one step

[@mathewhutchins2539]

Nope just standard with a capo on fret 2. Chord shapes in the key of G, but the capo makes that the key of A.

[@ian38018a]

That outro is about ten minutes too short

[@jsnjanusch]

Need to do this like Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds do.

[@stevevice9863]

Great version of this song. Jason and Sadler are both great pickers, but Sadler was really right in the pocket on his leads on this one.

[@grandnaguszek7417]

¡I CAN DIG IT!

[@snydesy]

Whats that other guys name??...Salad Vader??..

[@jasper_north]

snydesy dark vader

[@dankohollando9465]

I maybe

[@davidgilmore1021]

Can’t get the lyrics of Johnny B Goode to the melody of this song out of my head!! 😕

[@bartmccoy5111]

Morgan Wallen makes Isbell look like a rank amateur
