Soooo disappointed HBO missed a platinum opportunity to do a second season of this amazing show!!!

[SaultiBalldeip]

Such a killer tune...captures the early 70s perfectly.
Fitting for such an awesome show.

[j.u.c.o]

The sound has been tied to the back of a black Lincoln Continental, dragged across the train tracks, through the back alleys and into the hills where it's been smoking unfiltered cigarettes by the bonfire.

I really dig how this whole project is slowly turning into a recorded, barely-polished-at-all jam band. Not sarcasm. It's freaking awesome.

[Jamesp]

Those power chords towards the end though. Wow. Like a mouth full of dirt. I love it.

[jacnbcc]

Seriously, is there anything this guy can't do?! Wicked song

[Jsmitt]

LOVE STURGILL. IM GLAD TO SEE HE GOT TO DO THE OPENINGSONG FOR SUCH A BIG SHOW

[michelbrasciolu]

J'aime ce décollage électro acoustique à 2 minutes 27 secondes qui nous emporte loin, très loin et même au delà. Je voudrais que ça ne s'arrête jamais : "all night long" dit-il à la fin. Plus ce serait trop ! Bravo pour ce nirvana musical extatique.

[pierremystique]

Only heard this for the first time a few days ago. What a riff! 2:27 onwards is like a firework display.

[jasonshelton]

Wow! This is a lot different from his usual stuff. But that's what separates Sturgill from the rest. He isn't afraid to be different. Amazing all around musician.

Put this song on as soon as you wake up, the slow grinding sound is perfect for a foggy morning and right as you are snapping out of that morning fog the fucking song Tyson punches you in the face and you're day has just started the most badass way

[lisadesimini]

I LOVE THIS SONG!!! Perfect tone and lyrics for the show!!

[heatherdean]

Made my night. Trying to not dance like a stripper, the family is in the room. Sturgill always does me right.

[exaflop]

Best artist in America today? Probably.

[jesscarwyle]

Son, really diggin this sound. Knocked it out the park again.

[bradshanahan]

Just finished binging season 1. Loved it! Can't believe it wasn't renewed. I've worked in the record industry for the last 20 years, and while we don't do the drugs and self-destruction thing anymore, they really got the intricacies of the industry dead on.

That Sunday Valley Sturgill is BACK!!!

[chrisjackson]

Nice to hear Sturgill tearing up some lead guitar again. Is there anything this cat can't do and sound awesome while doing it??? Damn.

[TheWalloper]

Hey now, baby, you been on my mind
Search my dreams, darling
Your taste is all I find
Look at my heart dying
See my soul sinking down
You know how daddy likes his sugar, baby
Oh, that sugar sweet and brown
But just one spoonfull of your sugar, darling
Makes daddy's world go 'round

Daddy stays up all night long
Can't get no sleep when he lays down
Lay there staring at the ceiling, baby
Rats running across my floor the only sound
Selling all the jewels out of my crown
Just to get one more spoonfull of your sugar, baby
Oh, that sugar sweet and brown
How sweet the sound

[halden]

I'm really rooting for you! Hands down the best band I've heard in a long time
