obsessed

have you heard of sturgill simpson?  surely by now you have.  if you have not yet, look him up.  buy his albums.  go see him live if he is ever in your neck of the woods.

if you like country music, or more specifically old, classic country music he will rock your world.

chris and i were lucky enough to see him live recently at a tiny venue and it felt very special because it was a next-to-impossible-to-get-ticket and totally had the vibe of a once-in-a-lifetime concert experience.  those are rare.

remember this song from the eighties?



try this version on for size:


he is awesome.  i promise. (get it?)

p.s. another song i am obsessing over is sung by marcus mumford covering some bob dylan lyrics on the new basement tapes.  i'll confess, i'm a little mumforded out.  i change the station now when one of their songs comes on the radio.  it's a shame.

but this, my friends.  this song.  two words....
hubba.
hubba.
