Thanks for the listing! I've seen this show several times and love it, but it's nice to know how to get to the part I'm looking for quickly. Really appreciate it!
PS: It's always nice to see which master piece is next

Five years later, who is still listening to this set besides me? Jason is a songwriter of a generation.
Easily one of the best live recordings I've ever seen. And this setlist is phenomenal. I still find myself circling back to this performance once a month or so it feels like.
Bookmarked indefinitely. It’s here for when I need inspiration. I was late to the party, but my drink is always full when it comes to Jason. He’s the James Taylor of our generation. So prolific. So good and honest.
Me. that's who.
It's a go to.
Forever this time!!!
I was at this show. I remember leaving, thinking, "I'm pretty sure that's how church is supposed to make you feel."
I was able to see him at the Ryman.... that was church.
Exactly what I was thinking!
F*^# church.
Also, the stained glass backdrop helps that concept along.
This is church to me.
This has to be one of the best examples of recorded concerts I've ever seen. All the instruments are perfectly mixed. It's shot beautifully and edited wonderfully. What a great job by the crew on both teams.
So well said
Perfect instrumentation, tone, and soloing too. A joy to listen to
The Isbell/Vaden dueling electric guitars during Never Gonna Change is an iconic moment and we all fortunate to have stumbled across this recording.
Derry with the Pink Floyd vibes immediately before that. Great sequence, great craftsmanship!
This ^^^
I'm nearly 50 and kind of have felt this age since I was 26. Color me grateful to see such genius songwriting in my lifetime and to see him in concert in a few months. Mark my words folks, young people in 50 years are going to be covering isbell songs like young people have been covering Dylan and Leonard Cohen forever and will be until we're all dust. This is the best art can get. Thank your lucky stars to be alive right now to see it. Bless this young man for all he does and is.
John Mayer put it best..... Jason Isbell lives where the rest of us songwriters hope to spend a day or two. 🎶
I tell people, if Springsteen was born in Alabama, or if Townes Van Zandt didn’t squander his gift on the bottle, they’d be Jason Isbell. I’m 64, and he’s one of the best lyricists of my lifetime.
I'm a boomer. This guy is a late discovery for me and I can hardly believe how good he is. He is conscious of his art and smart about it. It's a wonder to see a dyed in the wool artist who doesn't lose himself in self-destruction and who conquered his demons at such a young age and was able to move forward. This is a lucky generation.
@@EGW4181 I agree, and BJ Barham from American Aquarium said "In music there are three things, you can write, sing, or play. Most can do one, if your lucky you get two, but damn if he can't do all three its not fair."
@@EGW4181 Sean Madeline love Longwood Gardens
Dear God, he's so good at everything. The songwriting is both powerful and meticulous, his vocals heartfelt and emotional but still always spot-on, and he's a great guitar player, but knows how to keep it simple when the song calls for it. Even his mic technique is good. It's so rare to hear someone someone bring this level of craft, artistry, and combine it with deep insights into the human condition.
Well said. People who bitch and moan over "music these days" really need to open their eyes, it's right there, you just have to look for it.
THATS PRETTY MUCH HOW I FELT WHEN I FIRST HEARD HIM DAMN HE PUTS IT OUT THERE.
So nice that you mentioned "craft". Of course he's crazy talented, but he's also the product of lots of hard work.
I feel like I'm in church too. 😮
Lots of hard work
Today I discovered this man and this woman, today is a good day. God bless everyone on Earth. Music is God's gift to us all.
You have some catching up to do. I found him by accident myself just about 4 yrs ago. I've not been so obsessed with any artist since Stevie Ray Vaughan.
Every song Jason sings is fantastic… Real country, real Americana…. The antidote to Nashville.
I watched this three times today. Making quarantine bearable.
It is helping me through quarantine too! Are you watching him and Amanda live every day?
I So Lounging w/ Amanda Shires! I believe they’ve got stained glass in their barn-lounge too lol
hey brother
I watch it about once every two months. :) Hang in there!
Late to the party that is Jason, 400 Unit, DBT, but making up for lost time.... Love and peace to all their fans worldwide, from Scotland. 👍🏴🇺🇸❤️
I’m from North Alabama, been listening since The Drive By Trucker days and I can Honestly say he is a part of this place and a part of who we are. He speaks to my soul. Thank you Jason Isbell for everything. You truly understand The Duality of The Southern Thing.
Didn't know it was two hours when i first clicked it. Two hours later I am restarting
I'm new to Jason's music but it feels like every time I listen to him his performances really matter. His heart is in everything. It's so evident, appreciated, and admired.
I never don't shudder when I hear "drinking sweet tea from styrofoam cups". Been there, done that, still feel the pain in that lyric.
Yep, it’s about heart, authenticity, and the music…he’s the real deal…and a profound guitarist
I hear some Joe Ely
I love the cheering in "Cover Me Up" after Jason sings about getting sober. We've lost too many beautiful minds to a romantic vision of mental illness/addiction. Here's proof positive you can be happy and still make great art.
I agree on the thought that we've lost too many people. I love that song and it makes me angry that during every pause, a handfull of people just can't let the silence hang there, they seem compelled to yell and whoop it up. A song with that much emotion, I just wish folks could just live in that moment.
They cheer because he got clean. I've heard in an interview or two that he loves when they cheer him on that line. I thought the crowd sounded very respectful.
Cody Housley I have no problem with them cheering that line. If you watch it again, they cheer on every single line when he pauses no matter what the content. That's what bugs me. He sings a line "to use me for good" and then it's instrumental for a few bars and 3 or 4 people have to whoop or holler every single time. It's an intensely personal song and every time he pauses doesn't need an idiot yelling "whooooooo!" Every damn time.
Exactly
US audiences whoop all the way through shows. Either that or chat the whole way through. Why pay good money and do that? The filming of this is really outstanding. Great show. Looking forward to the UK show in October.
He is truly a great American musician who is finely getting some of the credit he deserves!🎵🎼
"Mama's and grandmothers love you, because that's all they know how to do." Wow, Jason and the 400 Unit! DRESS BLUES is the best song I have heard, that reminds all of us about the sacrifices of military families and the price paid for American freedom. When we beat the drums of conflict for someone's Hollywood war, dying too young, is the real price many of our young soldiers and their families face. My daughter enrolled in the army, just out of college. I listened to American Soldier, on her military graduation day and said a prayer for the smiling young men, some of them, coming back to their mothers already, in Dress Blues, somewhere. So many of us forget too, the American Armed Forces, include patriots of all races and color. Great concert guys, but DRESS BLUES makes me sad. Blessings Gold Star families. Thanks for the service of the veterans, active men and women we love and the sacrifices of those we lost. The children we raised to make a difference in this world. I pray for mine and yours.
Hope your girl stayed safe & came home “OK” if she found herself overseas somewhere.
His talent is only exceed by his fortune in marrying Amanda. Great to see them together on stage. Reminiscent of Johnny and June. God Bless.
My son bought me Southeastern for Father's Day a few years back and that was me hooked. Have seen Jason and the band several times since in Glasgow. So grateful I did something right in bringing up my son to appreciate great music.
My dad introduced my sister and I to DBT years ago and we've been a family of Isbell fans since. We are so grateful that dad taught us to love and appreciate great music that we are taking him and mom to see JI&400U in Red Rocks in September.
Emily Shockley: Awesome and exactly the way it should be. Education comes in all different ways 😀. Have a great night.
This should be released as a live album. It's perfect. Band is tight. Voice is perfect as always and Amanda is there.
Would buy
Cody Housley I took the audio from this, made an album cover for it and made in to an album if you want a link to download it I can give you one
that would be awesome!!
I sure would love it, too!
Hey man any chance I could get that link, I wanted to seperate all these files, but if you've done it already that would be a huge help ,i cant get enough of this show
One of the best live performance videos you will see.
This era was Jason's peak, in my opinion. Such great songwriting and playing.
This really is one of the greatest recordings of live music, ever! Right up there with Allman Brothers at The Fillmore!
Ive listened to Jasons music over and over and over....great peace and thought come with him. Morgan wallen can sing whatever he wants but Jason Isbell cannot be touched. I love you all. Thank you sincerely for singing to us .
This is great, thanks! I got to see him at Merlefest a few months back. During "Cover Me Up" I look at my girlfriend and she has tears in her eyes. She was watching me mouth the words. I didn't realize my eyes were watering up. The guy delivers like no other. Don't know how you put that much of yourself into every song. I have 8+ years in recovery F'n love that he has had so much good come his way since he sobered up. Beautiful sh!t.
My Dad will tell you he's been clean and sober for one day and that he's been blessed to string those days into almost 30 years - one day at a time. He sent me a link to "Cover me Up" and said it had him tearing up too. I've talked to several of people in the program that say the same. He is a great example that there is life, love and acceptance in sobriety. Hope all is still going good for you too!
I can’t find a better artist these days and there are many out there , just not better than J Isb
No better feeling than collectively cheering for him with a crowd at a concert after that, “I sobered up” line
@@countreegirl Your Dad is a wise man.
Completely feel this post. Peace to your brother.
He’s the best living singer/songwriter alive today with the only exception of Bob Dylan whom has had a good 40 year headstart on Jason. We don’t realize how damn lucky we are. Stadium shows when live music returns.
Better than Dylan, in my opinion.
The difference is Isbell can sing..... the same cannot be said for Dylan.
Check out Amos Lee, I just heard Jason Isbell for the 1st time about a month ago thanks to Spotify for playing these amazing Singer Songwriters.
@@benjyhews9419 yeah that's true, but that doesn't bother me much, honestly I think there's a lot of live shows he Oversings on, after like 2004 I don't think there's a single really listenable version of decoration day just because he Oversings everything and kills the emotion.
@@lancewhite77 I try to stay away from "better/best", but I'd rather listen to Isbell than Dylan (or Springsteen for that matter) any day of the week. Never get tired of his art.
I am still listening to this concert even today! I wish I saw it live, what a show!
Tonight, at our house live music all night...Featuring This show, Brandi Carlile acoustic show & Jimmy Buffett & the Reefers at Snapdragon. I've see a lot of shows in my lifetime... This one show got moved to this later date. Was still the first show ever at the venue & sadly was Jimmy's last. He really was wonderful. This Boomer is kicking back. Concert is at home. 🎉2024🍾
Fungo Bat, Tremor in a t-shirt and Pedialyte all in the same song. Love this guy.
Whoever suggested this be made into a live album is absolutely brilliant! I was fortunate enough to be at this show, albeit a bit too far back and bit too far buzzed. Fortunately, this video allows me to relive it over and over. By far the best recording of Isbell available online. Thank you, WGBH!!
Cover me up hits me every time. What a powerful song. Brilliant.
Man, what a band..especially his drummer, Chad..absolute beast.
I’ve often thought the same thing.
Watched this dude as a 20 some year old kid with DBT to half empty club shows early on in his solo career to this. Couldn't be more proud of an artist I've supported for a long time. Congrats to Jimbo Hart who's always been nice to me as well as being a great bass player, ya did it man!
+Gary Miles Jimbo's the unsung hero of SMTF. Amazing lines.
(He's so unsung they left his name off of the original album credits!)
That sucks, maybe he should become an asshole then he'd get some credit, because being nice isn't working.
+Gary Miles Ha, it was an unintentional misprint on the original vinyl issue, not sure if it was repeated in other formats, but I believe they fixed it.
Isn't it cool? Just a few years ago, all my friends said "Jason who?" Now everyone loves him.
Me too!!
I can never get through a Jason Isbell show without tearing up and dancing to exhaustion at least once...sometimes in the same song.

Thankyou for going to the trouble to list tracks/songs on the timeline. 💖
I've been listening to Isbell's solo stuff since he left DBT. It's ironic to me how good he is and how much I can't get enough of his music.
You see, I was a fan of the Drive-By Truckers in the very early 2000's. At the time, in my circle of friends, we had a running joke that DBT put on the worst live shows of all time. In hindsight that wasn't very fair to say. However, I still saw them play a half a dozen times.
At the shows I used to feel like Isbell held the band back, and he was just this weird chubby kid that seemed to like to wear tie dye shirts. I felt like Cooley and Hood were way better than Isbell.
16 years later and Isbell has passed up the rest of DBT by leaps and bounds. I saw him play in Lafayette in December of 2016 and was so blown away. It was one of the best shows I've ever attended.
The other part of all this is that I last saw DBT play in 2013, and they had become a much better live band.
I guess the moral to the story is don't be an asshole like me, and pay attention to musicians and their progression in their craft. They may just surprise you.
I remember seeing DBTs in the early 2000s and thinking about Mr. Isbell, 'theres something there, but he hasn't found it yet.' I was a big Cooley fan and I still am, but Isbell is a monster of an artist. He has definitely 'found it'!
@@charlesw.4576 he was hammered and on drugs for much of that time. It's what helped give him the perspective that he has but it may probably made him not the best performer or band mate or husband at the time (he was married to the bassist I believe)
@@uns33n yeah, but they knew each other before they were all in the Truckers
I saw the Drive By Truckers a few times when Isbell was in the band and thought they were great although sloppy at times. Always loved Jason's songwriting contributions. I've loved all of his solo stuff and see him every year at Red Rocks when he comes through Colorado. Brilliant songwriter and also a blazin' guitar player.
If you want to check out the DBT DVD of the Dirty South Tour, Live at the 40 Watt Club, in 2004 you may revise your opinion of them as a live band. They rocked and the songs by Colley, Patterson Hood and Isbell were all incredibly strong. It might get just as many views as this!
Jason put on one of the best shows I've ever been to. If you are watching this, thinking about seeing him, just do it.
Love this set- I think it actually sounds better in black and white :)
Best songwriter on the road right now. He's amazing.
I come back to this recording so often. So well filmed and the set list is excellent.
his work is beautiful Southern Gothic poetry put to music. I cannot get enough.
Well put and I agree!
Helluva show. His gift is making every song feel like it was written just for you. He’s a damn fine songwriter
Jason is Unparalleled by anyone in the industry today! This is absolutely amazing, WGBH! Thanks for posting this! I am actually getting married on Saturday and decided to do our first dance to "Cover Me Up"!
Decoration Day... what a fucking song.
One of the best songwriters of any generation!
Still listening. A huge JI fan.
When Amanda harmonizes in and takes over vocals for a split with her angelic voice in Dress Blues at end (22:41)... perfection.
+4199ny Yeah she really lifts the song a notch. Great stuff.
Found this guy by mistake, looking for some real country music, yep, here it is. This is the real deal. Wonderful.
Saw him in Indianapolis a few months ago and, except for a few shitkickers in the back, the place was like a church when he sang. Almost everyone in there hanging on every single word. I've never seen anything like it.
+Andrew Kling I missed him in Pittsburgh in March...and I can believe what you said about it being "church"...damn, he just brings it and those lyrics are amazing.
I saw him at the Chicago Theater in February and it was the same thing. It was a reverence I've not seen at a rock show before...amazing.
Ditto in Atlanta about a year ago... it was outdoor venue at a festival and still the same type of attentiveness..
Andrew Kling That's because Isbell is a poet who happens to also be an amazing musician.
jerrkyd You nailed it!
I saw the band one month before this gig en Hamburg... My first time and last (I hope not so long), an unforgettable night!!!
I made a point of seeing him in his home state and seeing him with a hometown crowd was worth the trip.
This show has changed my whole look on music and song. writing best show ever!!!!
Curious to learn how hearing/seeing this show has changed you outlook on music. What had you been listening to up until now ( which is now a year ago, since you posted)?
The "Dress Blues" solo with guitar and violin is so gorgeous.
I have been watching this concert for years. Most definitely one of the best live shows ever. Keep making excellent music. We love yal.
this man Jason, he's the real deal. I already had upmost respect for him with his song writing and singing. When he took up for the late John Prine and Shaver at a music show by leaving and then telling about it I was truly amazed. Thank you Jason.
This guy is absolutely unbelievable, as good as it gets!!!
I just saw Jason and the 400 unit again at Cain’s Ballroom in Tulsa, Ok. They keep getting better. The show was outstanding.
This Tulsa girl wanted sooooo badly to be there! I am going to Red Rocks in May! The Cap in NYC last month was sublime.
I'm new to Jason Isbell and the 400 unit. I've been listening to him for past three days.
The more you listen, the better it gets.
Jason Isbell is one of the best songwriters and players of his time (along with Taylor Goldsmith). Support him, his band and live music -- they are not to be missed when they come to your area.
Best songwriter out now, period 👍 I'm a late comer to the show but I'm on board and loving the catch up with all his albums👌
Finally got to see him two weeks ago. Small out door venue in East Providence RI. What an awesome show. Can't wait for the next one.
I Loved be this young, talented Patriot!
& OMG ...
'Cover Me Up' sooooo Beautiful! That's his wife's very own 'Shameless.'
This is my very 1st time hearing him & It's LIVE! 🇱🇷☝️
💋👈🤠👉❤️
You have no idea what a Patriot is. Think you will though, just takes time.
Speed Trap Town is such a masterpiece.
my favorite.
Great songwriter. That's beyond dispute? Underrated guitarist? Hell yes.
I was there! Whole concert blew me away but Dress Blues was amazing
I love the little bits of stage banter between Jason and Amanda. Makes me think of Johnny and June ;)
I was there with my 13 yr old daughter. Amazing show. Hard for me to understand how this guy isn't playing bigger venues but I guess we can enjoy it while we can.
I hope he dosen’t play bigger venues. On the other hand, he will be playing Red Rocks, outside of Denver in September.That’s one of the best venues on the planet.I wish I could be there.
He has said he would rather do 8 nights at the Ryman than MSG.
Proud to say I listen to this at least once every fucking day. Wish it were available on CD.
He just released a live recording from the Ryman Aud., it's pretty great.
Man!!! This oughta have a hundred million views and counting!! It just don't get much better than this!!!
Best Isbell video recorded set since ACL. Thank you WGBH, my sincere appreciation for posting this.
+4199ny Thanks for the compliment!
You could be right
Gotta agree, this is fabulous, love the black n white!!
Thanks, Wayne!
Such a treat. It's a flawless concert and not in the least because of the excellent quality of the recording.
Still watching this one years later; a masterpiece of a concert
This is my favorite show ever I watch it every day
I HAVE CONTRIBUTED 10% OF THE VIEWS OF THIS VIDEO.
Saw him at Bass Concert Hall in Austin. 3rd row seats. Great show. One of the best I ever saw. He is the real deal.
I was there -- also with great seats. He is the real deal.
93 people have no soul. This is straight to the heart joyous music. Hallelujah!!
Mercy! That's how you do it, son.
I don't know how many times i listened and watched this. And it is just as beautiful every time. Just WOW!
Wow. Amazing show.
a great man, a great human and a great artist...what's not to love?
Lucky enough to see Jason at the Ryman in Nashville. Absolutely mesmerizing and as close to perfect as it gets.
I envy you.
Same, being a DBT fan and an idiotic Isbell fan, It was wonderful. Love the Ryman, it adds magic to every show.
I love to hear Jason Isbell sing! It's magic! And of course, I remember those alabama pines... He deserves a massive contract!
Going to see Jason live for the first time on July 10th in Boone, first chance since I became a fan a couple of years ago. Gonna be awesome!
Saw him for the second time at Byron Bay Bluesfest in Australia last March. He was my last set after five days of great music. Took me to a very happy place and headed home on a high. I could listen to these songs every day and never get sick of them. As someone else said, he is the real deal. Great songwriter, top band.
I love that the entire show is in black and white. Classy.
Today's quarantine pleasure - thanks
True journeyman. He's put in the work and it shows.
Memorizing!Contently impreesed!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎯
It came on UA-cam on my phone right before I went to sleep. When it was over it played on in the dream . Its 5 in the morning and I just finished listening to it for real for the first time. You now the feeling when your crying and you feel your life was worth living, like you life has been epic.
First heard of Mr. Isbell on Mark Marrons'podcast when he was interviewing Mandy Moore so I decided to check out some of his performances. Just an incredible songwriter.
I was at this show. Awesome to have this to re-watch.
My favorite band at the moment. They have been ever since I heard Southeastern when it came out. Keep it up guys, you all rock equally ;)
I'm so thankful to be alive at the same time as Jason and everyone else who has helped him play this amazing music. The planets really did align.
WOW. As a former Marine, Dress Blues hit home hard. First time I've heard this one. Thanks, Jason.
Darren D Semper Fi

From one Marine to Another,
And one Darin to another Darren,
I just heard that one myself a few days ago & it hit me as particularly special...
Especially since it’s about one of his high school buddies that joined the ranks of United States Marines.
Semper Fi Leatherneck!
Saw him again a few days ago in Omaha. He was excellent as always, Sadler was on fire, and the band was tight. Won't lie though, I missed Amanda and Jimbo a bit. Today this concert recording popped up again on my feed, and I'm reminded how much I love this era as well. Isbell's got some great new songs in Miles, This Ain't It, and Strawberry Woman. But....if I could hear him open with Palmetto Rose again...yeah, sign me up for that :)
I just saw him recently at Red Rocks and he and the band absolutely killed it for the whole show, and they saved a little extra for the encore. Amanda opened and that was bittersweet, but she also knocked it out of the park. I saw him in Birmingham at Avondale Brewing last year and the local crowd was so full of energy and so welcoming I had a brief thought of moving there- it felt like going to a family reunion where you don't know anyone but they adopt you on the spot.
I was at this concert, off to the left side of the stage towards the front, we had no idea it was being recorded. Nice bonus to see a great concert over again. The crowd was impressive- everyone singing along, happy, the way it should be. Shovels and Rope opening were incredible.
They are coming to KC on Tuesday finally, and I am here for it. C'mon!
I recently moved to Denver from Alabama. I get to tell everyone I meet about all the musical history that was formed in Muscle Shoals, AL. Of all the legends that have recorded music there, it's tough to pick a favorite. I've been to music festivals all over. I've probably been to over 100 shows throughout the country. However, getting to see Isbell perform at Red Rocks was, hands down, the best show I've ever been to. We all have our favorites, but I honestly can't think of a niche group that Jason's music wouldn't appeal to. No matter how much beer had been drank that night, you could hear a pin drop when Jason stepped up to the mic. Jason and Jimbo, if you ever come back to Red Rocks, you can bet for sure that I'll be back. I'd recommend to everyone who gets a chance to go see the show.
I moved from Denver to GA. Agree, everytime jason is in town or nearby we go! Redrocks show would rule!!!
Saw that show. Stunning night.
JI is coming to Red Rockies this summer
@@sgurule1437 I understand that David Crosby is on the bill for September too.
My favorite contemporary singer-songwriter. Great concert.
Thanks for posting. Awesome show! Saw this band without Amanda open for my morning jacket and they crushed it. So many great moments here. Perfect demonstration of Jason's talent. He'll break your heart on one song, lift your spirit in another, then he decides to rock out and shows he's one of the great guitarists out there. His slide solo on Children of Children is a must see, as is his Decoration Day solo. Sadler Vadin's also no slouch and crushes it in the Decoration Day coda. The whole band is killer on Cover Me Up. That's a song that they really perfected live and it's stunning. Amanda also does a great job in key moments. Great to watch!
I absolutely love this group. Songs mean something and people can have a very personal connection to the words. Rarely are such great lyrics combined with such great music
I've lost count of how many times I have replayed this performance of Dress Blues but its not enough yet.
Amazing players all, and Jimbo Hart is just blistering on that bass guitar. I drum a little but am really a frustrated bassist, and Mr. Hart is just sick! He and Mr. Gamble are an amazing rhythm section.
I'll be looking for you ninjas in 🇨🇦 soon...
