I live in Australia. Many years ago I got turned onto Iris Dement! Honesty in songwriting that was a freaking smack in the face. Saw her in early 2010's in Adelaide. A few decades later I discover Brennen. I listened to "John Deere H" and lost my toys out of the cot! What a song.! 6 months later I got to see her with Ray and Asleep At The Wheel at the same venue as Iris. As a Queensland, Australia, farm boy, a decade removed from Bennen's Dad but still with the understanding of how he felt....JDH is as good as "Our Town". There is no "better" when it comes to these ladies...it's what memories those lyrics and delivery engender at the time.

The WesternAF video of John Deere H is absolutely fantastic. I watch it often.
