    This is the best thing ever. A Woody song, Tweedy, Nels and Isbell.

    I'm a big Isbell fan so seeing this with his name on it made me listen. And now I'm into wilco as a result.
    It's been a great life so far

    I’m not a new country or alt rock aficionado per se but I’ll say this. Wilco is that rare combo that transcends everything to produce some of the greatest music ever. They are lightening in a bottle. I love them.

He lived Wilco and I love Jason Isbell. So its pretty insane that this popped up in my feed. I love you Ryan. Maybe someday this weird world will bring us back together.

    I'd like to rest my heavy head tonight
    On a bed of California stars
    I'd like to lay my weary bones tonight
    On a bed of California stars
    I'd love to feel
    Your hand touching mine
    And tell me why
    I must keep working on
    Yes I'd give my life
    To lay my head tonight on a bed
    Of California stars
    I'd like to dream
    My troubles all away
    On a bed of California stars
    Jump up from my star bed
    Make another day
    Underneath my California stars
    They hang like grapes
    On vines that shine
    And warm the lovers' glass
    Like friendly wine
    So I'd give this world
    Just to dream a dream with you
    On our bed of California stars
    I'd like to rest my heavy head tonight
    On a bed of California stars
    I'd like to lay my weary bones tonight
    On a bed of California stars
    I'd love to feel
    Your hand touching mine
    And tell me why
    I must keep working on
    Yes I'd give my life
    To lay my head tonight on a bed
    Of California stars
    I'd like to dream
    My troubles all away
    On a bed of California stars
    Jump up from my star bed
    Make another day
    Underneath my California stars
    They hang like grapes
    On vines that shine
    And warm the lovers' glass
    Like friendly wine
    So I'd give this world
    Just to dream a dream with you
    On our bed of California stars
    So I'd give this world
    Just to dream a dream with you
    On our bed of California stars

      Michael Krok I tear up too. Said goodbye to my daughter in 2016- she was moving to LA and put I together a playlist for her of every song I could find ( from 1960’s- present) having to do with LA/Cali. Discovered this and it’s one of my very favorites. Keep in mind I grew up listening to Led Zeppelin.........
