- Jason Isbell performs "Last Of My Kind" from his new album "The Nashville Sound." The full conversation and performance airs on PBS on Monday July 3, 2017.
Jason may feel like he's the last of his kind, but at 80 years of age I'm right there beside him. Bless him for putting these feelings to music so very well!
And God Bless you, ma'am... I'm 30 and your comment really resonated with me.
Well said, Mr. Duke. He is an old soul.
im doing it asap
This is a song that will be timeless bless you and your 80 years of life
He does do thot exceedingly well but, my friend, a 75 year old wrote that story …however, I wrote it when I was considerably younger…
If you get the chance to see him live, DO IT.
He's ace on stage.
First time I saw him live, blew me away with that voice. Powerful!
Saw him 3 times! Each was better than the last. I saw him once at the Monterey fairgrounds in 2013 and felt like he was singing for me that day. Maybe it was the LSD tho... Haha
Can confirm. Man can sing.
Very true!!
I’ll probably just cry the whole time. He gives me goosebumps
The audio tech deserves some kind of award for this one.
Clearly, Isbell is an all-time great guitarist and wonderful vocalist as well, but that can all get lost quickly in a live performance.
This one was absolutely amazing
yea and the vocal microphone has no popscreen,,,really great job
I walk around my hometown of Bozeman, Montana and this songs so hauntingly true. Homes not home anymore.
I feel you.
Neither is Northeast Texas. Commiefornians are destroying everything.
Just discovered Jason when watching the TV show Billions. So impressed! He has such a young Dylan quality.
One of the best storytellers to ever grace this planet. @jasonisbell has got me through marriage, divorce,addiction, sobriety and all of my last 12 years.
You and me both...
Lol are you me?
@@kevinsayes am i?
The depth of this artist takes my breath away... More than not his lyrics resonate on such an emotional level, brings tears to my eyes.
Same her Bonnie. Beautiful and personal. Reminds me of John Prine. We are so blessed to have this artist's work!
Resonating on his resonator!
He’s our new Prine. So much feeling behind the lyrics.
@@nickautry7332 Exactly! Aren't we lucky enough to have lived to know two masters like Prine and Isbell?

"Nobody here can dance like me, everybody clappin' on the one and three"👌
that's the line that pulled me in to this song
rudeboysosh same here.
rudeboysosh "yes sir" also "am I the last of my kind"....
But you gotta clap on that 2 and 4...that's where the groove is.
The worst is when people try to clap on every quarter note and miss it every time.
This truly is one of the best songs, lyrically, that I've heard in a long time.
Yellowstone brought me here so happy 😀
Love his sound ! Discovered him a couple years ago. His poetry is so soulful !
Me too, just now
Agreed
Season 2, episode 4
I just found the show today from a YT video about Rip, after that 2mins I was like damn i gotta watch that show.
One of the if not the best song writers of all time. True poetry for the soul...
I had to show my 84 yr old Daddy from Georgia that the type of country music still exists. Amazing concert and artist!
Best songwriter of a generation. Disagree or not, but he is the real deal.
And people say good music isn't being made anymore. They must of never heard of Jason Isbell.
One guy and a guitar, and this is more hypnotic than just about anything else online. So so good.
Seems like a sin, that I am just now hearing Jason Isbell's music. American Radio Stations are letting us all down.
Radio is dead
Probably indie label and better for it..................................control your own music and destiny, seems fitting.
So true. This guy should be entertainer of the year for the last five years.
Love this Band!! Good job guys!! Also that guitar is sweeeett!
It is a sin indeed but you're saved now. I've been listening to him for a few years now and telling anyone with a soul and ear for music to listen to him.
I’m certain that Jason is not the last of his kind. Because, through his incredibly deep compositions - he is teaching those who come after him what true song crafting is. I’ve said it before, Jason Isbell is the James Taylor of this generation.
I was trying to figure out why I like this. Yep he reminds me of James Taylor.
Just discovered this gem while watching Yellowstone. It stood out so pleasantly n struck something in me.
Love from India❤
I think many people my age relate to this (I'm 58 today). I sometimes feel like "I'm the last of my kind". Maybe we all feel that way at times, especially as you age. It hits home because guess what is on the farm I grew up working on? A Wal-Mart ("Walton's Five and Dime")and an Interstate.
Happy late birthday. I'm turning 59 soon. I remember my mother saying not long before she passed that she didn't feel like she belonged in this world anymore. Now I know exactly what she meant. This song is a masterpiece. Thank you Jason Isbell.
If it makes you feel any better, there are young people who still relate too. I'm doing the college thing right now, and finding a lot of truth in that line. Chin up. You ain't the last, just close to it.
You should be entitled to a discount at that wal mart
I didn't have much trouble in college. And I didn't grow up on a farm. But at 61, yes, I can relate. Jason's lyric is of isolation, of independence, of feeling apart, feelings I'd venture to say are more or less universal at this point in history. And he delivers the question so plainly, so maturely. No malice, no pride or defiance, just: Am I the last of my kind?
Really great song.
There’s people in their 30s that feel this way
Had the honor of seeing Jason in concert in Evansville Indiana last night,I truly have no words for what I witnessed, what an incredible talent that like lagaman11 I cannot believe I am just experiencing. There should be a separate genre for artists like him just labeled true talent
I was there too, absolutely fantastic concert!
So glad this song exists
I don’t know how to play guitar, but thank you Jason for singing a song that speaks for our hearts in words we can’t express.
You know he's okay when he just stands there with his guitar and belts it out.
Just WOW.. heard it on Yellowstone TV show on Paramount Network and was blown away
Just now saw the episode, good tune
I've been listening to Isbell since he was in Drive-by Truckers... He is (in my opinion) the best songwriter I've ever had the pleasure of listening to...
This song makes me want to be a better person...
Don't "Walk right passed em like they ain't even there"
I promise... Helping people who really need it, is the most beautiful thing we can do and after you do you'll feel so good... Nothin feels better than doing the right thing... Believe it.
I love "If We Were Vampires." Whoa.
My bloody god!! Shivers don’t come often for me but this is magnificent
Beautiful song. Thanks!
Absolutely criminal that someone with this amount of creativity, talent, and honesty is not recognized more. Dude is a gifted. Give me one good reason he isn't.
Dude worked hard and gave up everything = “gifted”
@@jamesaustin8711 I honestly don't know if that's a positive or negative response.
It’s neither. It’s just,… I bet if you told Jason he’s gifted, he’d tell you he spent a long long time working at getting that good…
@jamesaustin8711 Absolutely. And those who are gifted need to work hard as well; watch his documentary writing Reunions. Not many have that kind of patience and drive. That's a gift.
Who is giving thumbs down to this? I am seriously saddened by humanity on a daily basis. Such a beautiful and real song.
Quality...Whoever disliked this, hang your heads in shame.
Beautiful. Just beautiful.
Jeez this is rock solid....
This is an absolutely beautiful song...lyrically and vocally.
Just heard this on the TV show Billions..what a great tune..thumbs up from Ireland!!
I'm only 30 and I relate to this song so deeply.. jason isbell probably the greatest folk/country song writer of all time.
I'm 72 and I feel the same way too😢
Wow. I’ve been looking for music that moves me, makes me feel, this does it.
First of all, don't automatically assume he's singing about himself. Sometimes he is but more often he is creating characters representative of what he sees around him. This particular subject is rejecting all that he sees but Isbell is saying it's not that simple. There might be much to criticize about city life, but that's not the whole story.
Love this song. Love this performance. Amazing how Jason conveys the words with such a quiet intensity.
That amphetamine line was deep i felt that and don't even know the feeling. I'm listening to this on my lunch break. This song will sure help me drive another 50 T-post into the ground real quick. 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽
That outro is classy. there is some sort of half step walk down that hits in the feels. great tune.
It feels like it finishes, just there. It slows, quietens...but then tumbles back down into it again. Little touches like that really demonstrate something 'more' in his abilities. Beautiful, really.
We are so lucky that Jason picked up John Prine’s Torch and will continue to run with it.
I fully contend that Isbell has his own torch to run with.
So beautiful.
Most beauteous song. Now I'm obsessed with it and will try to learn to play it for the next 6 months. Thanks for beautiful music Mr. Isbell.
Great lyrics. Great phrasing. I certainly feel this way sometimes.
Thank you so much I sincerely hope you never stop listening to my music 🎶❤️
I’m here because of Yellowstone, best show on now!
Same here, and I agree!
Me too!
Jason Worthen I saw it was renewed for a season 3
that's the reason for my visit too. thoughtful lyrics!
Small world
Just discovered Jason recently. Glad to know the genre is alive and well. This dude is awesome!!!
What a great song. I Sometimes feel like I might be the last of my kind too. It is a lonely feeling.
I believe its a universal feeling, which is why we all love it.
@@bellevans that doesn’t make any sense. If we’re all the last of our kind, then nobody is.
But I get what you’re saying. It’s just more authentic for some ppl though, for most it’s just a fetish.
Took me a second, but I get what you mean. Wouldn't we ALL be the last of our kind...but then there would be no "kind".
@@debtoralive4693 exactly! that's why the song is art. It doesn't exactly make sense logically, but somehow, emotionally, those who get it, get it.
The future of music is bright
This guy...mastered the art of fingerpicking. Reminds me of my dad. A skill I have tried to pick up but neglected to do when my old man was still around. Listening to him takes me back to when I thought it was all in front of me. Love it!
Jason is set the mark sooooo high when it comes to song writing. Waaaaay up there!! Thank God!!
Just was introduced to Jason Isbell by my son who was at his concert in Utah last night. He sent me this link and I love this song so will for sure be listening to lots more. I am 83 yrs old, love most all music with a message and words you can understand. Not very much of that in the " new country stuff". Thanks for a great, meaningful song.
Loooooooooooooooooooooooooove this song and so many others by JI. So happy to have found this artist a couple of months ago. Beautiful performance.
He's very good. Southeastern and Something More than Free are his best albums. welcome to the fan club.
Nice, thanks for the suggestions!!
Laura Baker go back to original band little different music but killer with meaning drive by truckers
Kevin Calhoun will check that out, thanks!
I echo your sentiments,I'm late to the party too
Who in Hell would give this a thumbs down?...... Florida Georgia Line fans?
Cowards. That’s who, cowards
Idiots that don’t like his politics, or don’t like looking their own politics in the eye
He RIPS my heart out!
Just discovered this tune watching Yellowstone. I love it
Amazing & Brilliant. God bless you, brother.
Billions led me here. Thanks Bill!
Beautiful song... I'm in tears...
I used to jam with BJ in Florence, AL several years before this. Great guitar player. He's with St. Paul/Broken Bones now. Pretty cool to see this floating around.
💙, Jason definitely is a rare find, talented and unique and amazing human!!! May god bless you and keep you!
How can you not like this?
Jason Isbell keeps on pumping out hits. He's such an artist! He's such a poet! I'd love to see him live someday.
Like the last of the good red wine or single malt. Never get tired of these songs. Hope you come to Canada soon!
When the live version sounds almost exactly like the studio version, that is how you can tell a talented artist
Doesn't have to hide behind computers or editing
Isbell uses auto tune all the time.
That's the most aesthetically pleasing guitar I've ever seen. Just fantastic.
I heard this on the radio for the first time tonight (small town radio station)
The guitar sounded almost like a mandolin.
Wikipedia says that mandolin was one of the first instruments his relatives put in his hands, when he was six, because it was easier for him to play than a full guitar. True story.
I've been thinking about catching his show in Oslo Spektrum in Norway in November and this sold me. What a range, what a powerful and beautiful voice.
Love this guy!! Just a brilliant artist.
The whole world's changing and this song resonates that so well.
There’s still great music
My New favorite song, and songwriter. Depth..substance..real music.
Yellowstone brought me here too. Love the song and music!
This song makes me want to cry for the loss of older folks and old ways.
This reminds me so much of John Prine, thank you for getting me through this life with your Art.
I totally agree. I was just trying to place what song it reminds me most of. I am working on a playlist for my radio program where I play a song influenced clearly by another artist/song then play the influencer.
@@matthewelkin8684 the one where he sings "used to bust my knuckles on a monkey wrench"
That has to be the coolest resonator I've ever seen. Never seen a vibrato on one before.
I heard this on Yellowstone today,, now for the second time..... same episode. This is so beautiful. While we all everyone, its not possible, fit this song to a T, but boy can we relate. Thing is, this one is me. We live in times where "our times" are so quickly forgotten and the world is so angry. My personal feelings are we all need to reflect and pick out only the best from our growing up an forgive the bad. THAT WORD, 'FORGIVE' 3 letters dropped change it to 2 and maybe just maybe that might be necessary to do as well. FORGIVE & FORG.E.T. then there is this in that word, FORGE.
FORG, I.V.E. the past
FORG,E.T. the bad disagreeable
FORG,E. new memories and GRACIOUSNESS toward the souls upon this earth.
Beautiful song. I hope everyone that hears it can relate and respect somehow. God bless you for the recording.
what a fantastic song from a fantastic performer.
Me and Jason are from the same town and I love the songs last of my kind and 24 frames.
wdkelly78 so your from greenhill? I'm from Lexington
I am absolutely floored by how talented this artist is. A fantastic, riveting lyricist, a wonderful singer, and with guitar chops for months. Just a monster. And to think that 'Decoration Day' was one of his first "fleshed-out" compositions is just stunning. I haven't heard a song from Jason Isbell that isn't great. I can't truly say that about anyone else.
The best music this old man has heard in years,the best 👌
Great songwriter, story teller. Always good for my soul.
I love every one of his songs. What a presentation...puts you right in his spot whatever song he sings. And, yes, I caught him immediately on Yellowstone. Great.
You are so good.
Oh my god first time hearing this “everyone’s clapping on the one and three”
Superb!
Well this sure is great. Saw him in Cincinnati the other night. Great show!
Andrew Cummins Loved the second half of that show! Could've lived without seeing the mountain goats.
Me too..they weren't great...but Jason/400 KILLED it! It may be the best concert I've ever seen and I've been to hundreds over the years.
great song, heard him live in chicago last year, great stuff!
In my books: Serious contender for best song of 2017
Does this remind anyone else of John Prine? I say that as a compliment. Another Isbell masterpiece!
Yes- I hear it too.
I just commented the same thing. So yes I do I'm just three years behind you
Exactly
My goodness, what a beautiful song. It drills right down into your soul.
I feel this song deeply.
I see the Sam Hunt fans are giving the thumbs down to this amazing singer/songwriter.
Bill Goodman Maybe he just doesn't make their "speakers go boom boom."
No, it's possible to just like different types of music indiscriminately and judge a song by the quality of its melody, lyrics, and arrangement regardless of whether it fits into a genre or not. You don't have to derive an opinion strictly based on the genre it's in, it's fans or the way it's packaged.
who the fuck is Sam Hunt hahaha
who's that? and why would anyone dislike this?I mean even if its not your style or whatever your still human aint ya? How can you not feel that?
Sam Hunt sucks.
Absolutely pristine
Beautiful!
Have had the good fortune to have seen Jason 3 times, and the 4th is coming up next month. I’m an old folkie who has loved Dylan, Prine, Waits, Lightfoot, Van Zandt, Joni, EmmyLou and their art for the last 50-some years. None of them has a thing on Jason Isbell. He is easily the most interesting contemporary artist and poet in the music industry. However, there are others who are attempting to improve the state of Country music out here, but they tend to fall under that all-encompassing umbrella of “Americana”. If you want to here some ungodly songwriting and acoustic performances that will floor you and reinvigorate your hope for our future musical legacy, give a listen to the songs of the following artists: John Moreland, Tyler Childers, Mary Gauthier, Colter Wall, Patty Griffin, Brandi Carlisle, James McMurtry. This is only a partial list, but I’m certain you’ll discover these people have something to say and you’ll enjoy how they say it.
This is a god damn good song
Born and raised on a beef farm. I sit looking out my apartment window with a drink in hand listening to this wondering the same thing.
Billions - beautiful song
Simply amazing music
