    This is one of the most under appreciated country hippie rockers of our time and never gets radio play.

      You know, listening to the studio stuff I always assumed it was a vol pedal. You gotta have some real touch to incorporate the knob to steadily get that sound.

    I saw this episode when it aired. I remember almost turning it off when I saw it was a "country" band. It had been so long since I heard anything that was actual country that I just didn't have the heart to sit through another pile of fake country pooh. This right here was a breath of fresh country air. It was like a ghost from the past peeking its head out to remind the industry what country is supposed to be.
    Amazing live performance.

    How in the HELL does this sound so much better than the album version? Sometimes artists sound better live due to better communication of character, emotion, overall vibe... and all that’s happening here, but he sounds AMAZING in terms of technicality and vocal precision.

    Sturgill is such a treasured artist. reminds me so much of Waylon. This song and this specific line is just incredible song writing - "Hoping them circles don't call back telling me to start today" If you are under, I dont know, I guess 40, this line will pass you by. Put if you ever needed a job and all you had was the want ads, then this line is a complete mike drop
