The songs he wrote with DBT were absolutely devastating. You can tell he wasn't in a good place, but dam if those songs weren't powerful. Especially Danko/Manuel and GD Lonely Love.
Isbell was and will always be the best trucker. I am glad he is doing solo stuff now. He had so much untapped potential with the truckers that is blooming now.
So nice to hear from someone who believes the hype. DBT made him improve, and fired him because they were tired of his issues. His wife, Shonna Tucker, DBT bassist, divorced him. He was an insufferable cokehead and drunk... And apparently has forgotten Amanda Shires was successful and had her own money and career before Nashville came around to see if he was worth anything.
he doesnt know what he's talking about. 2 sides to every story, and if you accept the version given by a 'friend'' of someone who used to work with him, well, you aint in line for no high iq prize. This bigmouth small eyes idiot sure has lots to say when he should probably stfu
