Taken from the album 'Metamodern Sounds In Country Music'.

The first time I heard this song, I was living in the back of an old Ford pickup at a truck stop near Moorcroft, Wyoming and I thought it was the greatest song I'd ever heard.

I’ve be a fan since 2015 when old Merle said that this youngster, Sturgill Simpson, was about the only thing new worth listening to in country music. How right he was!

What a breath of fresh air this guy is, compared to all the garbage that they’ve called country for the last 20 years.

I been there and lived this song before. I ad an ex gf tell me one morning that she is leaving me. She was sure surprised when i said "ok hold on to that thought". Then grabbed my cell and called dispatcher Jerry and asked what di he have leaving out right now. 5 minutes late he called me back and said "Hey Dave how does Santa Anna sound? i got a load of Kitchen Kompact ready to go you need to get on it though. Give me the word I'll have you hooked up and ready by the time you get here. How does that sound?" and i said responded "i'll be there in in hour and half" Then i looked her and see ya later have a good one and i was gone.

I sat with him David Barry, 2 other dudes. He played this song at a campfire in red river gorge. drank beer, told dirty jokes. Knew he's was gonna make it big. Probably 2000. Before the wars kicked off. Good dude. We recorded it.

First listened to Tyler Childers, then Colter Wall and Shawn James, and now Sturgill Simpson. Holy shit! Some good music nowadays, finally!

This guy single handedly got me into country. Ive been a metalhead/rock guy for my whole life and the furthest i ever went with country with Skynyrd (if you even consider them country) until Sturgill. Now im listening to Waylon Jennings, Hank Williams, Colter Wall, ect.. All it takes is one phenomenal artist to open you up to a whole genre

[zachmass]

I waited way too long to get around to listening to his music. Definitely worth the wait, he’s from a different time. This is country music

[JtcMICH]
