@@theonygard5694 Yeah it's the originality of his music that comes from just being completely yourself (in making music) by not worrying about how other people make music. You can't fake that. 99% of musicians, including myself are more concerned about making good music than making real music. But I'm always trying to let go of this ofcourse.
I'm 30 and honestly listening to Kurt reminds me of listening to Bob Dylan when I was 15. I feel like I've recaptured something that I've not felt since.
He's one of those artists that you either get or you don't. I'll admit, on my first listen years ago, I really didn't see the appeal, and just wrote him off of as another Dylan wannabe. It wasn't until days later that I caught myself humming one of his songs without realizing it. Kurt just gets into your blood, and there isn't any cure. He's the best kind of disease.
would love to hear kurt play 'comin through - the war on drugs' they are both great. but kurt will always be my favorite. his music got me through a tour in afghanistan
I remember coming across Kurt vile on KEXP a few years back and from then on the sound has just gripped. Absolutely amazing and such just a joy to listen to. very talented and so good.
i really prefer a lot of the songs off his later records live as opposed to on the record. I really love the way he plays guitar one of my all-time favorite musicians
Love the opportunity with this set to really listen to the lyrics -- never noticed in "Ghost Town" the line about meeting up with friends to go look for Kinks vinyl. Love KV ❤️ .
Wish i went to that festival in my neighborhood town in 2019, where Kurt played😭 but, i had just found him then and was'nt totally into him then... something i will always reget😔
I did a bit of digging and according to an old Premier Guitar interview with Kurt, it seems to be a custom Martin 00 version that’s based on Martin’s Philadelphia Folk Festival Anniversary Edition of 2011. Sounds amazing in any case. @@brisson182
I appreciate this. To the utmost degree.
"Thats enough, for now" love the humility haha
The classic example of a guy who 'just has it'. That bit of magic that you can't quite pinpoint that is so difficult to find.
I agree with you Kurt is something else ❤️

The fucking QUALITY of this entire episode is 10/10. The sound and recording. The music. Everything.

Who the hell doesn´t like Kurt Vile?

Kurt is god if you get it. I can see why less than enlightened individuals may not love him. You can hate on him or get all mushy an lovey dove him.
@James B. McGill Just imagine being you. Kinda sad, James.
28 people, apparently
The world is full of people who listen cumbia villera with Bosse or Alpine amps in their cars.

Kurt F- - - - - G Vile....an American treasure!
It took 39 second for this to give me chills, what a wonderful man, the great Mr. Vile.
Ghost Town one of my favorites of his all time, so fucking good
the man. His live performances are insane.
I am surprised at the time passed since this recording. It is beautiful and meaningful to me. Bless you Kurt x
AND KURT VILE BECOMES THE BEST SINGER/SONG WRITER OF THE NEW ERA !

Pretty awesome
Wish i went to that festival in my neighborhood town in 2019, where Kurt played😭 but, i had just found him then and was'nt totally into him then... something i will always reget😔
Peculiar choice of rhythm in his strumming, but somehow it still adds to the atmosphere.
awesome
Kurt is a badass!
The best guitar picker there is today.
how can dislike this, I mean really?
❤️❤️
Neil Young 50 years later. Kv can tell a story with his guitar and microphone. Just like Neil…we all listen to the story
Sweet brother
kurt makes my kry
❤
Атмосферно и по-приятному печально!
"Christ was here, you just missed him." Whoa KV.
I love that guitar tone! Does anyone know what it is? Martin 000?
Looks like a Martin concert size body with all mahogany solid wood. Not sure the model tho

If you want to try for that tone but can't afford the Martin, try to find a 60s Hofner acoustic in decent shape.
Looks like a Martin 00 size, probably either a Custom 00-17 or 00-15. I have a 00-18, same shape
New Young!!!
Young Young :P
Fuck yeaaaaahhhh!!!
Reminds me of Rodriguez
Love all his albums but this new one is my favorite. Courtney Barnett album is fuckin legit too
@shaman's flight Fuckin great album, it's that one that introduced me to Kurt Vile
@Syrup & Pancakes you suppose they'll do another album?
That slow talkers tho
Maaan that's a nice geeetarrrr
Very Neil Young I’m thinking 👍
highwayman t shirt
Курт - крос!!!
Сначала не понял, а потом как зашло
Man you just ok. You win. It´s just my idea.
"watch me try."
Is it Johnny Cash in his tee?
Vitor Neves Yes, as well as Kris Kristofferson, Willie Nelson, and Waylon Jennings. The Highwaymen.
You’ve been Vile-ated. See what I did there?
Kevin Suggs must get mad strange
timidez
This dude is insanely talented in many ways, but something about that singing style makes me wanna drink antifreeze and head butt a land mine
What? xD
I love Chet Atkins
Yikes...
goin hammer on slow talkers
