One man, a guitar and a kick drum is all it takes to make radio country look like a dumpster fire. Edit: Glad to see there are so many fans of real country that can relate.

@@dustindearing1722 so quite a bit different then? The biggest difference between singers being their voices. And lyrics. And if they play an instrument, playing style, tuning and chord choices. So not really the same at all. Other than both use a guitar and kick drum. Alicia Keys is basically a knock off of Bach since they both play the piano.

@@dustindearing1722 not sure what world calling someone a knock off is considered respect. And therein lies the cause of us getting off on the bad foot. Even if someone says you're a knock off of God himself, knockoff is still an insult. I'll go check that song out.

@@dustindearing1722 checked out that song and about six others from Shakey. I'm not hearing what you're hearing. So I have to stick with my Billy Joel to Jerry Lee Lewis analogy.

@@dustindearing1722 all is forgiven then. I hadn't heard of Shakey Graves until your comment. Dig the style as well.

The song is actually about Robert Johnson. Father of bluegrass. People like B.B. King would study RoJo because he was single-handedly the best guitar player who lived. He only recorded I believe 3-5 songs and died. Story is he disappeared for a year, came back some kind of string pickin idiot savant.

More delta acoustic blues than country... this is really just a spin on Robert Johnson's ol' Crossroads story... even down to Highway 61 mentioned. Keep in mind, that there are points of overlap with country, blues and bluesgrass... this is one of those times. But to me? This is pure acoustic blues. To you it's 'country'... the secret is... we're both right. I'm not calling Colter a rip off (love this dude's music)... this is his own song, his own style, but it borrows heavily from some VERY old blues. It's all good, I bet Robert Johnson would love this song. But the old crossroads trope in music (And more covers of this song that I can count...

In memory of Robert Leroy Johnson. Sold his soul to the devil on country road 61 in clarksdale Mississippi.

[@CR-xy6jf]

The devil.put that deal on the house to save country

[@metallicaaddict2436]

Every note he’s hitting, every string he’s picking without lookin half the time, and not muting it is insane. I could never remember the notes or chords to play this.

[@robertlee4809]

I'm from Rolling Fork Mississippi...grew up off Highway 61. The kind of blues that I play and grew up hearing around me at the old juke joints, utilizes this style of picking. An old friend and guitar picking friend used to call my style of picking "thump blues"....playing the bass lines while playing within the chord structure....absolutely love this

[@paulmenard6219]

None of that is really written out. It's basically just feel around his vocals... that's why these songs change a bit over the years of playing them. This guy is a genius... seriously... but it's really not a difficult song to play at all.

[@philipatoz]

It's like someone poured the musical DNA of Johnny Cash and Tennessee Ernie Ford into the same young man / old soul! He really knows how to powerfully do subtle inflections, both as a guitarist and as a vocalist. Less is more, especially when the right magical drops of voice and instrument are sparsely and inspirationally blended. This kid is no doubt the REAL deal!!!
