If you like him you would so love deadsouth. They do a lot of really good stuff. Not just gutar tho. All string instrument. They did a single together called Jonny's boys bones. Devil makes 3 amazing band graveyard chained to the couch, and the bullet. Milk carton kids. Indie band two guys. Play the softest most elegant picking I ever heard. Just search up snake eyes or ashville sky's. Make you cry
That first line will always give me goosebumps: “Well the raven is a wicked bird, his wings are black as sin; and he floats outside my prison window, mocking those within”
Such a good opener! reminds me of, and could be a homage to, the bon iver line on re:stacks ‘There's a black crow sitting across from me His wiry legs are crossed He is dangling my keys, he even fakes a toss’
Could also be a nod to Edgar Allan Poe in The Raven. Also a talking raven and a dead loved one. There's a rendition of the poem on here that's as stupendous as this song.
When you want to circle back to colter wall again... sleeping on the black top. If you like his imagery in these songs. It’s pure poetry in “Sleeping on the blacktop”
Love how the song slows when he discovers her with the other guy. Then the music builds and you can feel the anger build in him as well. The music helps tell the story too.
I thought it was a cool touch that after he said “I put three rounds in Kate McCannon” he does three strong kick drum beats in quick succession as if to represent the three gun shots.
Ha that’s awesome you mention that cause that’s what I tell everyone too. That little detail. Also in the studio recording he gets real quiet and the music builds up until he says ‘I put 3 rounds...’showing his mind is stirring and he’s getting more and more pissed. And my last name is also Wall so that’s an added cool factor.
I'm not hearing what your saying. He does 3 hard strums on the guitar. Is that what you mean? Or do you mean the 4 kicks he does like 30 seconds later?
The dude is in his early 20’s, and sounds like he’s lived a whole long life in the old west. How does a guy that young got the mind for those lyrics??!! Nobody sounds like him, ever. And prolly never will . 💯
I love the subtlety of saying “I put three rounds into Kate Mcannon” followed by the build up of the guitar intensity leading to three loud consecutive strums
@@Guitargate Loved the shout out to Tom Waits. The man is nothing short of brilliant. Now, as a guitar teacher; I'm quite surprised that you haven't (to my knowledge anyway), that you haven't tackled any Nick Drake songs. Fruit Tree, Parasite, River Man, Three Hours are great examples, etc. The list is not long enough since his life was so sadly cut short. Nearly every one of his so
This needs all the detuned-ness, all the imperfections make it what it is, harrowing and haunting. Don't listen to the album version. The producers couldn't handle it and flattened it to the point of stifling a pancake and drying out all emotion. This is how it was written, how it was supposed to be performed.
Yes! I've been commenting about John Moreland on some of his other vids. I hope Michael sees this. This is another fantastic song by John Moreland. th-cam.com/video/zHAGMBABAJE/w-d-xo.html
I feel like we are all in the same TH-cam algorithm loop. I listen to pretty much all the artists mentioned in this thread, most found by TH-cam autoplaying them 🤣
I love the fact that you love Colters story telling and nuances as much as I do. The proper language and guitar sound and tonal variations paint a visual that most songs only wish they could.
"I could buy a diamond ring" is the key line to this song as it implies more than one thing. 1 the amount of time he has been saving 2. How much he loves her 3. The fact that he is ready to move foward and make her an honest women 4. In tangent to his pay he saved she is worth enough to save a quarter of his pay and 5 tells the reason as to why all the rage built up when he seen her with someone at the place they fell in love
I love early on you thought the story was about an innocent man serving hard time. When I showed my husband this song, that's what he assumed as well. But that LAST LINE. Three rounds into Kate McCannon. No apology, no regret. That's such a story and such a sketch of the man. Love it.
"Look how much he believes this story", and that's what makes him so good. Some may laugh, but Jerry Reed's voice wasn't what made him a legend. Colter's music is utterly fantastic
I love the way the intensity of his guitars playing swells in intensity in the pause between “founder her with some other lover” and “so I put three rounds into Kate McCannon”. To me, it’s like feeling the rage build inside him as he sees it. Also, there’s a point in the outro when he hits the kick drum three times. To me, that felt like a subtle nod to the shots. Colter Wall tells just as much of a story with his playing as he does with his lyrics.
I’m so glad you’ve discovered Colter Wall. He’s a freaking machine. Nothing is perfect, but everything is perfectly in its place. I discovered your channel when you covered my friend in a past episode. Been a fan ever since I found you.
That brief buildup between when he softly says that he saw her with another lover and when he says “and I put three rounds into Kate McCannon” is one of the most tense moments in any song I’ve heard. So much emotion and storytelling in a few seconds of music without any lyrics. Crazy good and gives me chills every time
It honestly gives me chills every time I hear this song and he briefly pauses after softly saying he saw her with another lover... so much storytelling compacted into a few seconds without any lyrics. You can feel the broken hearted shock in his voice and the buildup of uncontrollable emotion. Crazy good.
Did anyone else notice the three kicks of the drum after he mentions the three rounds? There is no kick drum after that lyric until those three kicks. The detail is insane, and seeing it in concert was incredible.
8:40 It's worth noting this live version makes one very neat improvement to the album version where he changes the key then drops the three big kick drums to signify the gunshots.
Check out Colter Wall Sleeping on the blacktop, as a guitarist I love your reactions, I discovered him through a friend now I cant get enough.Thanks for what you do,love it.
You should really listen to "The tallest man on earth" he is a great picker, would recommend The tallest man on earth "Revelation Blues" - City of Music The Tallest Man On Earth - "What I've Been Kicking Around" (Live at WFUV)
"my darling angel's not in sight" and at "I found her with some other lover" my heart string were pulled in the same way his guitar strings were, like the lingering notes were drawn out to let the melancholy lyrics set in. Beautiful.
This is easily my favorite channel on TH-cam at the moment. A breakdown and dissection of not only the guitar part and guitar approach, but analysis and appreciation of the song at hand. Right down the middle for me. Thank you!
Dude I love how much you appreciate lyrics and vocals despite not being a singer. This song stopped giving me goosebumps after the first million time I listened to it but seeing your reactions and passionate appreciation for it is like hearing it for the first time again. Keep it up man. Full send👊🏻
I’ve seen several other folks recommend “Down the River” by Chris Knight. I’ll say it too. Do “Down the River” by Chris Knight. It’s a story worthy of a Hollywood movie script.
Man, I found Colter Wall a while back and loved his music. Michael, you are just making me just love it even more; coming with the music theory behind his playing. I'm a nerd for theory from college; and love other people getting into it. Love the videos, and I can't wait to see more from you!
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve listened to this song, heck on my Spotify 2020 breakdown Colter Wall was my number three top artist, but there’s something just pure and visceral about how you broke down the lyrics, that just brings new meaning to the song. And I absolutely love that.
You gotta hear The White Buffalo's song the Whistler. All of his music is beautifully haunting. Just found this channel and I'm loving what I'm seeing.
I stubbled across this video from boat test. I don't know how, but I'm glad. I don't play, but have always been a fan of great players, and it's awesome the way you break things down so fast. Also. I'm now a Colter wall fan and need a bottle of bourbon and his entire album. Can't wait to see the rest of this channel. Subbed
Great stuff man!! Loves me some Colter Wall!! Glad I found this channel!! Also enjoyed your Tyler Childers video... might I recommend the song "Banded Clovis" by Mr. Childers...kinda goes along with that murder ballad thing & it's one I think you'll enjoy!!
I don’t know how your channel was on my news feed but I absolutely loved your reaction to this song and just listening to colter wall one of my favorites by him is sleeping on the blacktop
It was pure joy watching you listen to this. Because you went through all the same emotions, and reactions that I did. The first time I heard Colter Wall, TH-cam was just auto-playing in the background. I was in the middle of working on something else, and this song started playing. About a minute into it, I suddenly started listening I mean really listening to it. I was shocked, that the voice was coming from this young man who was 19 at the time. I have listened to everything he has ever recorded at this point and I am now convinced he is the next Johnny Cash.
I loved his use of dynamics as part of the storytelling, strumming muted strings or doing simple picking then ramping it up to full strums. Gives it a great sense of direction musically to help propel the lyrics further.
Really enjoy your breakdowns Michael! What I love most is you getting excited about what could be a 4 second part of a song. You FEEL it. Thats what music does to me as well. Two songs that make me FEEL are "Whipping Post" live at the Fillmore by The Allman Bros Band and "25 or 6 to 4" by Chicago with Terry Kath on guitar. I would love to see you take on either of these two songs. Terry Kath was a monster on guitar. Keep up the great work and thanks for the thanks again for your videos.
He is simply brilliant. From his spooky/ tortured voice to his junk box guitar tone while being played like a master it’s just brilliant. His songs give me chills they’re so good.
You should check out Benjamin Tod - We ain't even kin. Story telling on par or maybe better than Wall and Childers. Also John Moreland - Break my heart sweetly is a great one.
Your channel is amazing!!! All of my favorite artist! I know you have already done a Tyler Childers song but you HAVE to listen and break down purgatory!! If you dare! It is some amazing pickin and it is hilarious as well. PLEASE!!!! (Make sure is the creek sessions video on TH-cam)
I absolutely love how Colters guitar strings are slapping, it’s slightly out of tune, his fingers touch other strings, those beautiful accidents and imperfections make this song really tell the story!!! Amazing!!!!! Well done Colter!!
Hey Michael im new to your channel. But i personally love "Tash Sultana" amazing looper with the guitar. You should check her out if you dont know her allready. I fell in love with her when i heared the "Jungle" song. Or last but not least Jack broadbent check him out. Especially the "black magic woman" song is amazing! You are also amazing i will keep watching your videos! I started playing when i was 30 so i im a very late starter. Im now 35 never had any lessons it goes very well so far. Learned to read tabs on the internet when i began. That helped alot. Your videos will also help me alot to get better. Thank you for you cool and awesome videos.
As a young man I was a Waylon Jennings fan and met him ,, Colter wall brings back some old memories ,,,, he’s Waylon Johnny, Merl and a few others rolled into one talented guy

I recently discovered Colter this year and then stumbled on your channel like a month ago. Both great discoveries.
You should check out Cowpoke by him, only one I heard him go high pitched on so far.
When Colter Wall was born he was 62 years old.
With a Marlboro hanging out of his mouth and Jack Daniels in his bottle.
born standing up and talking back
A Benjamin Button situation, eh?
His new album tells a really interesting story.
With my eyes closed I would have guessed 85 with a sore throat to boot!
It’s three rounds because the other three went into her lover. He’s carrying an old six shooter. It’s implied!
Hadn't thought of that, great storytelling
Ohhhh!!!! , badass bro your right.
No. He was squirrel hunting before... killed his dinner and then saw Kate.
sharp
Because of the implication
He sings this with so much feeling I'm 100% sure he actually killed someone called Kate McCannon
every man who has been betrayed by a woman knows this feeling...
he's all in...this song is pure magic. it never gets old.
I much prefer the way he sings it in these sessions than they way its played now. Now is still good but I like everything about the brewery sessions.
@@MoshPitInTheSky apparently he doesn’t sing that way anymore because he had to strain his voice too much to get the deeper ranges you hear
@@markbrownner6565 what if you were the one who did the betrayal
That first line will always give me goosebumps:
“Well the raven is a wicked bird, his wings are black as sin;
and he floats outside my prison window, mocking those within”
Totally. So did the hair wise when he tells of going to the creek - where they did meet.
Such a good opener!
reminds me of, and could be a homage to, the bon iver line on re:stacks
‘There's a black crow sitting across from me
His wiry legs are crossed
He is dangling my keys, he even fakes a toss’
amazing!!!!
Could also be a nod to Edgar Allan Poe in The Raven. Also a talking raven and a dead loved one. There's a rendition of the poem on here that's as stupendous as this song.
Some of the most haunting lyrics I've ever heard. They hit so hard.
Another great murder ballad is “banded Clovis” by Tyler Childers
That's my favorite by Tyler
th-cam.com/video/bwmbI4_rmgg/w-d-xo.html
And Rosemary by Sierra Ferrell!
The live version!
Agreed 100%!!!
When you want to circle back to colter wall again... sleeping on the black top. If you like his imagery in these songs. It’s pure poetry in “Sleeping on the blacktop”
th-cam.com/video/qSYkikkitS0/w-d-xo.html
Ian Nelson I really hope he dose that song
Oh yea this is his best song.
Definitely
One of my favorite songs...EVER!
i love how the strumming intensifies as his rage builds
Love how the song slows when he discovers her with the other guy. Then the music builds and you can feel the anger build in him as well. The music helps tell the story too.
“13 silver dollars” is a particular favorite of mine
Great song. And I love the history he puts in it.
Came here to recommend this and john beyers!! Highly recommend!!
I second 13 silver dollars
It is one of his best songs!
Blackout Menace you talkin bout that blue yodel #9? Lmao
I thought it was a cool touch that after he said “I put three rounds in Kate McCannon” he does three strong kick drum beats in quick succession as if to represent the three gun shots.

And my last name is also Wall so that’s an added cool factor.
I’ve heard this song over a 100 times probably and never noticed that! Good pickup on that.
I'm not hearing what your saying. He does 3 hard strums on the guitar. Is that what you mean? Or do you mean the 4 kicks he does like 30 seconds later?
@@dustinwiget8088 there's three hard kicks to go along with that too. the 4th emphasizes the start of the next measure of the song
Yeah man. Yeah.
The dude is in his early 20’s, and sounds like he’s lived a whole long life in the old west. How does a guy that young got the mind for those lyrics??!! Nobody sounds like him, ever. And prolly never will . 💯
He's also Canadian
Um, Johnny Cash...
His sound is a lot like Cash... Nobody sounds like him RIGHT NOW. But to say that nobody sounds like him is a false statement.
in the brewery session he was 19, just a cool note
he grew up/lives on a ranch and has referred to it as the prairie. hes the real deal
I love the subtlety of saying “I put three rounds into Kate Mcannon” followed by the build up of the guitar intensity leading to three loud consecutive strums
He uses the bass drum behind him to
Cow Poke is one where he REALLY shows his range! He can hit some high falsetto . Beautiful cowboy lullaby
Thats how i found out about him. Setting the bar pretty high
And his yodeling. I mean we knew the guy could sing, write, and play, but yodeling too? This guy is the full package haha
one of the best songs I've ever herd and I'm a hip hop head...
Its a lost art these murder ballads
That or Thirteen Silver Dollars is a really good one by Colter Wall
MY MAN DID IT
JUST FOR YOU BABY :)
Oh hey, you're the guy!
@@Guitargate Loved the shout out to Tom Waits. The man is nothing short of brilliant. Now, as a guitar teacher; I'm quite surprised that you haven't (to my knowledge anyway), that you haven't tackled any Nick Drake songs. Fruit Tree, Parasite, River Man, Three Hours are great examples, etc. The list is not long enough since his life was so sadly cut short. Nearly every one of his so
Aye yeah it's the guy
Put 3 rounds in it no less
8:11 He totally stopped himself from ratting Colter out.
What do you mean
@@bigwigvideos the joke is Colter may have actually murdered Kate
This needs all the detuned-ness, all the imperfections make it what it is, harrowing and haunting. Don't listen to the album version. The producers couldn't handle it and flattened it to the point of stifling a pancake and drying out all emotion. This is how it was written, how it was supposed to be performed.
100% agree (a year later)
“Prettiest Girl in the whole damn holler...”
One of my favorite lines ever.
that ain’t no lie
That ain’t no lie
Is a holler basically an area within ear shot?
@@bnbcraft6666 Where I'm from (deep south) a holler is essentially a valley sometimes with a river or creek at the bottom.
@@Choctawhatchee_Trash I live in the Florida panhandle and we don't got many valleys here
"You Don't Care For Me Enough To Cry" by John Moreland would be a good one to look at
One of my favorite songs. John is a seriously talented songwriter.
Yes! I've been commenting about John Moreland on some of his other vids. I hope Michael sees this. This is another fantastic song by John Moreland. th-cam.com/video/zHAGMBABAJE/w-d-xo.html
I feel like we are all in the same TH-cam algorithm loop. I listen to pretty much all the artists mentioned in this thread, most found by TH-cam autoplaying them 🤣
Blacklist is my favorite John Moreland song, but You Don’t Care For Me Enough to Cry is a close second.
I second this!
I love the fact that you love Colters story telling and nuances as much as I do. The proper language and guitar sound and tonal variations paint a visual that most songs only wish they could.
"I could buy a diamond ring" is the key line to this song as it implies more than one thing. 1 the amount of time he has been saving 2. How much he loves her 3.

In tangent to his pay he saved she is worth enough to save a quarter of his pay and 5 tells the reason as to why all the rage built up when he seen her with someone at the place they fell in love
"Sleeping on the blacktop " next?
I vote for Railroad Bill. Very similar Fingerpicking to Saskatchewan 1881, they're both Travis picked.
love that song
Keep The Wolves Away by Uncle Lucius is another that should be checked out.
th-cam.com/video/pYdvxBxHX2U/w-d-xo.html
Yes
Eh.... great song but its pretty simple musically for what he does.
Definitely, definitely, definitely.
so agree. i have a channel made on pandora of tyler childers and its amazing. uncle lucius is one of my favorites.
I love early on you thought the story was about an innocent man serving hard time. When I showed my husband this song, that's what he assumed as well. But that LAST LINE. Three rounds into Kate McCannon. No apology, no regret. That's such a story and such a sketch of the man. Love it.
Make Murder Ballads Great Again!!!!
It gives me great pleasure to see somebody nerd out on Colter Wall as much as I.
I like how you put “beer” as a hashtag lol
Get it while it's hot :)
Michael Palmisano PRIORITIES! Am I right?! Haha
"In Hell I'll Be In Good Company" by The Dead South. Another catchy tune about murder
Hellllll yea. One of my favorites, definitely their catchiest tune.
Love that tune!
Another great Saskatchewan group as well!
Yes!
Love dead south, fat little killer boy is a great song
"Look how much he believes this story", and that's what makes him so good. Some may laugh, but Jerry Reed's voice wasn't what made him a legend. Colter's music is utterly fantastic
I love the way the intensity of his guitars playing swells in intensity in the pause between “founder her with some other lover” and “so I put three rounds into Kate McCannon”. To me, it’s like feeling the rage build inside him as he sees it. Also, there’s a point in the outro when he hits the kick drum three times. To me, that felt like a subtle nod to the shots.

I’m so glad you’ve discovered Colter Wall. He’s a freaking machine. Nothing is perfect, but everything is perfectly in its place.
I discovered your channel when you covered my friend in a past episode. Been a fan ever since I found you.
I love how the music intensifies as he’s getting mad before he shoots her
That brief buildup between when he softly says that he saw her with another lover and when he says “and I put three rounds into Kate McCannon” is one of the most tense moments in any song I’ve heard. So much emotion and storytelling in a few seconds of music without any lyrics. Crazy good and gives me chills every time
Best Colter song there is. I love bob fudge as well. But this one takes the cake. Colter is from another time, those who appreciate it always will.
Bob Fudge might be my favorite. I know because it makes me cry every time i hear him say, "When i first saw Montana... I knew i would love her."
It honestly gives me chills every time I hear this song and he briefly pauses after softly saying he saw her with another lover... so much storytelling compacted into a few seconds without any lyrics. You can feel the broken hearted shock in his voice and the buildup of uncontrollable emotion. Crazy good.
Did anyone else notice the three kicks of the drum after he mentions the three rounds? There is no kick drum after that lyric until those three kicks. The detail is insane, and seeing it in concert was incredible.
Yesssss
I count 4
Id absolutely love to see you react to his song Bald Butte, they have a version of it at the brewery sessions just like the two before
The best version, by far!
Such an adrenaline rush when he's like "SO I PUT THREE ROUNDS IN KATE MCCANNON" and then the riff kicks in
8:40 It's worth noting this live version makes one very neat improvement to the album version where he changes the key then drops the three big kick drums to signify the gunshots.
Check out Colter Wall Sleeping on the blacktop, as a guitarist I love your reactions, I discovered him through a friend now I cant get enough.Thanks for what you do,love it.
You should really listen to "The tallest man on earth" he is a great picker, would recommend
The tallest man on earth "Revelation Blues" - City of Music
The Tallest Man On Earth - "What I've Been Kicking Around" (Live at WFUV)
SUCH a good call.
Seriously, this guy is incredible. One of the main reasons I started playing.
"my darling angel's not in sight" and at "I found her with some other lover" my heart string were pulled in the same way his guitar strings were, like the lingering notes were drawn out to let the melancholy lyrics set in. Beautiful.
Anything Townes Van Zant, the man is a Legend to this genre
Agree, but not a ton of good videos of him on TH-cam
Also I love seeing your genuine excitement when Colter gets into it, the enthusiasm makes this video so easy to watch
Sean Rowe - Vincent black lightning 1952!!
Yes Please !!
Was gonna say that, but the original by Richard Thompson... His guitar playing in that is insane.
Yes to this!
Keeping a strumming pattern, a kick drum pattern, AND singing is just an incredible show of talent
Woah, dude. I'm incredibly impressed with your musical knowledge. I love this incredible song.
"Down the River" by Chris Knight. or any Chris Knight song for that matter
such a good song
th-cam.com/video/liz7GYy3TEE/w-d-xo.html
Down the river!!
Agree with this recommendation
So great!
This is easily my favorite channel on TH-cam at the moment. A breakdown and dissection of not only the guitar part and guitar approach, but analysis and appreciation of the song at hand. Right down the middle for me. Thank you!
This is probably one of my top 3 favorite songs by Colter.
Dude I love how much you appreciate lyrics and vocals despite not being a singer. This song stopped giving me goosebumps after the first million time I listened to it but seeing your reactions and passionate appreciation for it is like hearing it for the first time again. Keep it up man. Full send👊🏻
Hi, please check out Benjamin Tod "we ain't even kin" or any of his songs really. Brilliant song writer
Using again is a good song by him as well
Love Ben and LDSB
Seen lost dog a bunch of times. Glad to see this here
J Dixon lost dog street band is a personal favorite of mine, in all of my playlists
Love his work, don't forget Spit Shine.
I’ve seen several other folks recommend “Down the River” by Chris Knight. I’ll say it too. Do “Down the River” by Chris Knight. It’s a story worthy of a Hollywood movie script.
Man, I found Colter Wall a while back and loved his music. Michael, you are just making me just love it even more; coming with the music theory behind his playing. I'm a nerd for theory from college; and love other people getting into it. Love the videos, and I can't wait to see more from you!
I love how in love with Colter Wall he is, it’s beautiful to see someone amaze a professional guitar teacher
this has really become one of my favorite channels to watch
He should do more tyler childers as well.
I want him to do the Tyler Childers live cover of Time by Pink Floyd where he transitions into one of his songs at the end.
Childers and wall did a duet called fraueline. Check it out
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve listened to this song, heck on my Spotify 2020 breakdown Colter Wall was my number three top artist, but there’s something just pure and visceral about how you broke down the lyrics, that just brings new meaning to the song. And I absolutely love that.
You gotta hear The White Buffalo's song the Whistler. All of his music is beautifully haunting. Just found this channel and I'm loving what I'm seeing.
holy crap dude! thanks for doing my video suggestion, you should react to one of Zach Bryan's songs.
Came here to say this. Condemned!
id love to hear you listen to john morelands songs, break my heart sweetly, you dont care enough for to cry, or cherokee
Bump for visibility
Such an amazing songwriter
I strongly support this suggestion. John Moreland is incredible.
I love your energy. I know nothing about guitar but it’s the passion I like. I feel it as well when I hear Colter. Love this man.
I stubbled across this video from boat test. I don't know how, but I'm glad.
I don't play, but have always been a fan of great players, and it's awesome the way you break things down so fast.
Also. I'm now a Colter wall fan and need a bottle of bourbon and his entire album.
Can't wait to see the rest of this channel. Subbed

“Frauline” Colter Wall feat. Tyler Childers
"Down the River" by Chris Knight! His songs are so real that I'm pretty sure he's killed someone before...
Well some people have it coming
I loved his use of dynamics as part of the storytelling, strumming muted strings or doing simple picking then ramping it up to full strums. Gives it a great sense of direction musically to help propel the lyrics further.

Nice! I was hoping you would react to more Colter Wall. 🤙
Literally anything by Zach Bryan.
"Leaving", "Flying or Crying", and "From a Lovers Point of View" are some highlights
Love the appreciation for the tunes i love that i dont have time to play myself! Im excited for your videos man.🤟
I keep coming to your two videos you made on him, absolutely love your videos
THANK YOU!
Give a listen to Colter Wall's cover of the old Eddy Arnold song "Cowpoke."
Derek Trucks, "The Sky Is Falling" solo would be a great one to see! Nobody can make a guitar sing the way that man can
coltar walls- sleepin on the blacktop.
First song i heard by him and easily one of my favorites, the rythm and twang just got stuck in my soul
Loved the video man!
“Down the river” or “North Dakota” by Chris knight. Excellent story telling.
scorpiongsxr I second this. Chris knight is one of the best story tellers alive and down the river is the best murder ballad I have ever heard.
You should check out Benjamin Tod - We ain't even kin. Story telling on par or maybe better than Wall and Childers. Also John Moreland - Break my heart sweetly is a great one.
Love BT but theres not a whole lot to break down with his stuff
The White Buffalo
It's truly a bone chilling song. I have yet to find a song from him that isn't just amazing.
Thank you for putting me on. I am a jam guy for sure but love tyler and stergil and now colter too. Ty
Your channel is amazing!!! All of my favorite artist! I know you have already done a Tyler Childers song but you HAVE to listen and break down purgatory!! If you dare! It is some amazing pickin and it is hilarious as well. PLEASE!!!! (Make sure is the creek sessions video on TH-cam)
If you ever look back to Colter Wall, you gotta check out his cover of “Cowpoke”
Yes, I said this one too!
Thats a good one.
Absolutely
What a voice on a man! Love his voice and the sound of the guitar.
The first time I heard Colter Wall voice I had to turn around to see what I was hearing, I expected an older singer but here was this young man.
I absolutely love how Colters guitar strings are slapping, it’s slightly out of tune, his fingers touch other strings, those beautiful accidents and imperfections make this song really tell the story!!! Amazing!!!!! Well done Colter!!
Hey Michael im new to your channel. But i personally love "Tash Sultana" amazing looper with the guitar. You should check her out if you dont know her allready. I fell in love with her when i heared the "Jungle" song.
Or last but not least Jack broadbent check him out. Especially the "black magic woman" song is amazing!
You are also amazing i will keep watching your videos! I started playing when i was 30 so i im a very late starter. Im now 35 never had any lessons it goes very well so far. Learned to read tabs on the internet when i began. That helped alot. Your videos will also help me alot to get better. Thank you for you cool and awesome videos.
I love that your reaction to Colter was the same as I. Goosebumps!
As a young man I was a Waylon Jennings fan and met him ,, Colter wall brings back some old memories ,,,, he’s Waylon Johnny, Merl and a few others rolled into one talented guy
I would LOVE another Shakey Graves video
Audiotree sessions "Late July"
I second this.
I'd love to see you tackle Any song by King Gizzard and the Lizard wizard
That boom boom boom at the end with the kick drum are the three rounds. Listen for it. Haunting.
I just found your channel, I love your reaction of this song!!! ❤
Listen to sleeping on a blacktop by him, it’s the best tune by him I think. Also he plays in D standard.
Give Nick Shoulders “rather low” a listen it’s definitely worth it.
I love how you’re so enthralled by these grand story tellers! Me too
