View submission: Why are there no current political hits?
Jason Isbell has often praised James McMurtry as a songwriter he aspires to be. McMurtry had a song during the Bush years called "We can't make it here" that is a biting commentary of that era and is still relevant today. Even his latest album includes lines such as "Fox News Fiction" and "How you gonna build a wall with no Mexicans anyway?" Austin Texas americana songwriting at its finest!
