One of the best songwriters in the game for decades, and still throwing 100 mph fastballs. McMurtry needs to re-record all of his best songs with BettySoo accompanying.

Dude's a national treasure -- as fine a songwriter as they come!
Great job James, love that tune - Warren Zevon did not live in vain.
"Cashing in on a 30 year crush. You can't be young and do that, you can't be young and do that"
Truth!
Never have understood how he isn't more well known.
He's pretty stringently avoided being well known.

This guy is it. Why isn’t he a household name I will never know!
Genius poet singing the words

One of the best in the biz... period. Thanks, eTown!
WOW
You still got that McMurtry magic from decades ago
Just so good
As a long time side man and recent aspiring songwriter, he terrifies and inspires me- so few are that good! Btw, great guitar solo Nick! 👍
You can't be young and do that. BINGO ✌️😎👍
Like the drums on the Live @ the Continental much better…. Great song
They both have killer bands when they're home. Betty Soo opening for James is solid show!
