Format: Live from Alabama


Description

In August of 2012, Jason Isbell and The 400 Unit assembled in their home state of Alabama in front of a couple of sold-out concert halls to record their first live album, Live From Alabama. After years of hard touring, the critically-lauded band has gelled into a versatile rock and roll squad that is equally at ease performing Muscle Shoals soul to hardcore country to balls-out rock. Live From Alabama s tracklist mines some of Isbell s most popular songs and includes a pair of inspired covers in Neil Youngs Like a Hurricane and Candi Statons Heart on a String.

  • Don't overlook Mr. Isbell and the 400 Unit
I'm in Southern California and this type of GREAT music just does not get radio airplay out here ( I sure hope it gets plenty in the south) This CD, THIS BAND and especially the FRONTMAN Jason Isbell never cease to BLOW ME AWAY with their talent and diversity when it comes to writing and recording music. If you've read the fist review you understand, Rock, soft rock, Blues, country a little feel of boogey and maybe a little woogey thrown in on Heart on a String. I would watch music award shows if they invited bands like this ( and other bands like Blackberry Smoke, Whiskey Myers etc.) instead of the acts that have already received big fame and recognition. WAKE UP !!! is what I say to the rest of the world who havn't yet found this incredible band and others like it that the talent just cannot be denied. Songs like " In a Razor Town" "Dress Blues" "Alabama Pines" show the fine level of this fine songwriters abilities LIVE or STUDIO. This is a fantastic Live recording, Mr. Isbell at this point in time is the Lone Guitarist in this group and due to his fine playing (and the flow of the keyboards) you really do not miss the second( or third) guitar. It's raw live but not lacking it actually is what live music is supposed to be when four musicians ( and a few HORNy guests) take the stage for a great live performance. You won't be disappointed in this live effort or any CD or song Mr. Isbell has recorded and released in the past. I recommend you buy anything that you can get your hands on that this fine musician / songwriter has released. ENJOY IT OVER AND OVER as I do. ... show more

  • Essential live album for the first period of JI400U.
This is a tremendous album with gorgeous versions of music from Jason Isbell's early career with the Drive By Truckers, as well as his first few solo albums. "Danko/Manuel" draws you in and won't let go. Beautiful covers of "Heart on a String" and "Like a Hurricane". This album and 2018's "Live From the Ryman" are a good overview of the live JI400U experience, and the only gaps are all the other songs he's written that are also killer live. ... show more

  • Brilliant
I only recently became aware of Jason Isbell. I purchased the CD (Southeastern) after hearing Super 8 and Travlin' Alone on The Loft on XM radio. I played that great CD non-stop for weeks & looked for more of his music on Amazon. Live From Alabama seemed like the logical choice. It did not disappoint! One terrific song after another (Outfit, Goddamn Lonely Love, Dress Blues the best of the best) played by a talented band lead by a great singer and gifted lead guitarist. But, it all starts with the songs. I'm a 56 year old, life long fan of Bob Dylan, Neil Young & Van Morrison and I put Jason Isbell in their class as a songwriter, which I don't lightly. In a word, he is brilliant. ... show more

  • Sweet home Alabama
Took me awhile to make the connection between Drive By Truckers and Jason Isbell...and then the fact he had left the group to set up his own band named, ironically and interestingly, after a mental ward at a local Alabama hospital. Which is a fitting introduction to say you'd be crazy if you didn't add this to your listening collection. It is a brilliantly recorded live album and the mix of songs is just brilliant. My only regret is that the highly addictive tune Codeine didn't make the line up but otherwise it is a superb and highly polished production. The cover version of Neil Young's Hurricane is an unexpected treat. This man and his 'insanely' good band are superb. ... show more

  • Well done live album
I've seen Jason Isbell several times live, and they were all great shows. So I was glad to hear that he has captured some shows on an album. This album has some of his best work from both his Drive-By-Truckers days and his solo/400 Unit albums. It also includes a few songs by other artists for some diversity. Thus I think he has done a fantastic job of song selection for this album. If I have any qualms, it is that he is too good live. That is, sometimes I wonder if I am really hearing a live album and can sense the energy of a live show because his live versions of his songs are performed so similarly to the album versions and I can hear comparatively little from the crowd on this album. ... show more

  • In a razor town ...
Working with his own group, Jason Isbell's work seems to have more room to breathe and develop than when he was fighting for space in the Drive By Trukers. I like DBT, but with 3 guitars and 4 writers and singers it could be hard to find enough room to stretch. Not to mention how all those guitars can crowd and push a song. But in these live versions of Isbell's songs like "Decoration Day," or "Danko/Manuel," the singing is better and more subtle, the songs played at a better pace and volume so that the vocals and solos can build and develop. This album was a revelation to me. Isbell continues to write thoughtful, well-wrought songs and his guitar playing so much more laid back and subtle. I especially like the back-to-back duo of "In a Razor Town" and "Alabama Pines." Lovely melodies, and songs full of feeling. I enjoy live albums, and though I hadn't followed Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit, I thought I'd take a chance on this. I'm glad I did - lots of old DBT songs done better, and lots of songs new to me to discover and enjoy. ... show more

  • One of my Favorites
I always liked the Drive-by Truckers when Jason Isbell was with them. I recently became a fan of his solo work when I heard him doing songs from his "Southeastern" album on Austin City Limits. I purchased that album on vinyl and instantly loved it. I searched Amazon's vinyl collection and purchased "Live from Alabama", which is made up of some of his songs from when he was with the Truckers, along with some of his earlier solo stuff. All I can say is WOW! This has got to be one of the best albums I have ever owned. The entire thing is good. Kind of album to put on the player, sit down with a drink and just relax. Awesome Rock and Roll/Country/Americana vibe, with great lyrics and guitar playing. ... show more

  • Jason and Unit 400 In Orbit
I have had the pleasure of following Mr. Isbell's work since he was added as a third guitarist, vocalist, song-writer with the Drive By Truckers. Hard to continue the quality of songs like "Decoration Day" and "Danko/Manuel", but Mr. Isbell has done so. This is just about the best live album I can recall hearing. You get the feeling of being there, with the audience being appreciative but not intrusive. Great mix of his DBT songs and from his solo/Unit 400 albums. As one person has commented, the group covers the spectrum of music from R&B to country - all with superb skill. The singing is clear, which is important as all Isbell's lyrics bear carefully listening. The guy is a genius. Finally, a super cover of Young's "Like a Hurricane". Wake Up America!! Jason and Unit 400 need to be known by all lovers of truly quality American music. ... show more
