The rural route sleeps while the city bleeds all over itself
Probably the greatest line in rock and roll. My favorite at least.

I know it is a cover but so was Moonshiner. I love Jay's interpretation of Townes' classic "Rex's Blues" He and Kelly Willis make beautiful music together. In some ways, Jay reminds me of Townes without the destructive fatalistic urgings and compulsions.

Those are gonna be fightin' words when we get to "She's more to be pitied".
Dude, the S's are a powerhouse letter.
She's More to be Pitied isn't even the best cover in that group!!

Now you know ... that just might be the one! My favorite rendition of one of my favorite songs, outside of The Stanley Brothers themselves, of course. "Left meets right in a high lonesome wail"
