Jason Isbell "Something More Than Free" | How I Wrote That Song

[@robinw924]

Best songwriter alive. Period.

[@masonbooth2363]

Robin W period!

[@andrewnevarez1110]

Robin W what about Evan Felker?

[@axemurderbambi2995]

Absolutely agree!

[@Allagi22]

I love Jason Isbell too but Neil Young and Bob Dylan are still alive. Let's be kind and considerate, pretty sure Jason Isbell would agree.

[@mattpriceplucky2646]

Great song writer but the albums after this one aient so great

[@jkocianpa]

Love this guy. Such a great songwriter, singer, and musician. This is a great song off a great album. GQ got this one right.

[@cawkanos]

Man, this songs a killer. Saw him play in Boise, Idaho years ago just after he left the Truckers. Then we bumped into him in the hot dog cart line. Great bloke, shook his hand and said thanks a lot for the tunes. Going to see him Sydney, Australia 3 April 2016. Man I'm frothin for it.

[@hotwatermusic_]

Lol frothin for it

[@alastairh9607]

He's playing the Enmore on the 5th of April this year. Can't wait to see him.

[@elihintz5620]

It's amazing how he paints the picture in your head so vividly. I think that's what makes a great songwriter

[@elmoblatch9787]

incorrect

[@domhartley7608]

Special, special talent

+Dominic Hartley Special, special talent.

[@PatriciaBean]

His music, lyrics and sound remind me a lot of John Prine, one of my favorites.

[@JamesJones-ql3kr]

+Patricia Bean Yes, both are keen observers of the world around them, he's also "Our Bob Dylan", a rare, great songwriter.

[@paul46722]

This whole album is great. Fantastic follow up to 'Southeastern'.

[@cr1949]

Living in Texas we're blessed to have the most incredible live music scene, I believe, in the world, with incredible singer-songwriters, but if there's any musician I wish we could draft to our team it's Jason, however, at least they play him on Texas radio, I don't know about the rest of the country?

[@kathrynmissert9211]

I’m proud to say I met him a couple days ago. Just an amazing human. Really nice humble guy

[@peterstoddart9720]

brilliant singer songwriter Love him and his wife.

[@tyronehuff]

[@1968ciaran]

[@ramonmendez1792]

[@chadjackson7955]

Hes not just singing, hes teaching.

[@WJC-xy4gj]

Class act. Great show In New Haven.

[@MariJu1ce]

[@mikem3901]

Absolutely an instant classic!!

[@Josiahjjr]

I love Jason, and I love what you guys did here. Excited to see more!

[@StuartAhlum]

Great film. I love the direction of this series.

[@joeonecome]

[@KedzieAvnoo]

Ya see the hammer finds a nail and the poor man's up for sale... brilliant!

[@thehouseofmadnessredux9110]

I love the shows he and Amanda play together. She's my dream girl!

[@jdwilliamson8312]

That line really hits hard

[@madeinmississippi662]

Inspiring...the real deal.

[@jasper_north]

Love the Elliott Capo

[@CarolinaNocked]

Epic is all I can say

[@jayrichjlr]

Very good

[@drbt030505]

Hospital maintenance? How autobiographical is "outfit"?

[@axemurderbambi2995]

He memorized frigidaire parts too. So don't say ya kelvinator is broke either.

[@ncdogdude]

Anyone know what kind of Martin he's playing? Good lord that thing is so crisp.

[@cobyleebrooks]

Whats more than being free..? Grateful.

[@keithwaynejones]

reminds me of the band Limbeck. anybody ever heard of them?

[@jimwrenn5720]

Keith Wayne Jones Nope, but I’ll give them a listen. When this song is done.

[@mike2191958]

A good maintenance man is hard to find. Opinions don’t pay bills not always about the money you make it’s what you made without the money that makes you.

[@madeinmississippi662]

Yes Sir, good wisdom. Thank you.

[@youcancallmeZimmy]

if Jason here is making good money, why doesn't he tell his Dad to retire and supplement his income, so he can take it easy?.and go to church

[@jessemwakajumba6552]

Southern dads, blue collar hardworking men like you wouldn't believe.

[@lincolnmaceachern2410]

If he were making Garth Brooks money, it's quite likely his father would keep working, and tell him to give some to someone who needed it more; just my guess.

[@casey2087]

Morgan Wallen is so much better

[@lincolnmaceachern2410]

Were all your mother's children morons?

[@damotheman4196]

If that was the case wouldn't it be Jason covering Morgans tunes and not the other way around?

[@casey2087]

@@damotheman4196 Let's compare a 20+ year carer to a guy that just came up a couple of years ago and has and has already has roughly half the net worth. I'll stand by what I said. Isbell is a has been that never really was that much of anything.

[@damotheman4196]

@@casey2087 You just proved my point. Longevity is what matters, not "net worth"... How much of that net worth is down to "cover me up"? Isbell is an established Grammy winning artist who joined the Drive By Truckers as a teen.. And went on to a successful solo career with ALL his own writing. Wrote a song featured in an Oscar winning movie.. Your whole comment proves all the flaws in your logic. You a fan of his use of slurs also?

[@joaquinfraziermusic6094]

Is net worth all that proves a person's worth to you? That says something. There's room for both Morgan and Jason in this world, Isbell's songs have meant a lot to me over the years, but I ain't going around KZbin hating on Morgan. He just occupies a different space in my mind.
