James McMurtry's "State of the Union" live at Seattle's Tractor Tavern

[@TheBizniche]

His lyrics hit the true tone of our reality here in America. Great song writer, guitarist and so honest it hurts... in a good way!

I can't be the first to comment????????????????????????????????? I have been in the Biz all my Life...I have been fortunate to hear most everything...James McMurtry affects me in a way I had not felt since the day I bought the "Bring It All Back Home Again" by Dylan...This man's lyrics reach down into my Soul...I discovered him when he opened for Nanci Griffith in the 80's.
