Easily one of my favorite songwriters singing his tribute to some of the greats from The Band... Hard to beat

I’m not all that familiar with Jason, but I love The Band. Great tribute song there.

I’m seeing a show at the ACL Live venue (Moody Theatre) in a couple weeks. It’s one of the best places in town to see shows IMO. Fairly small and personal.

Jason is my guy. He was solid when he was with Drive-By Truckers but since he's been on his own he's really just taken it to a new level. Live Oak, Children of Children, Something More Than Free, Cover Me Up, If We Were Vampires, Elephant, Molotov, Chaos and Clothes, etc etc etc etc... So many silly well written songs.

I’m familiar with drive by truckers, didn’t realize that was him. But I’ll have to do some exploring with the rest of that. I’m a sucker for all things “The Band” and that tribute song you posted was really solid, I’ve listened a couple more times now.

The MGs opening for CCR in their hometown of Oakland Ca. Must have been quite a show ;)

That looks like Steve Cropper on the guitar at the beginning.
And I could swear that's Donald Duck Dunn on bass at 1:18

It's possible I'm being thrown off by them playing a song that sounds like it has the exact chord progression as "Can't Turn You Loose" from The Blues Brothers movie.

Edit: I listened to a little more of that song. I'm 100% positive that's them, and this is the tune they used in the movie 10 years later - they just sped it up a bit and added some horns. Pretty cool stuff.

Had no idea those guys ever played with the MGs.
