I much prefer Gattis’s version (THE original)…but that’s just me.

So, do all you 9513 staff and contributors have “POEM” t-shirts you secretly wear when listening to “Ruth Harrison, Reference Librarian”? Crikey, mate! (lol)

I thought some of Dostoyevsky’s ramblings about suffering would go well with the Tolstoy.

Tolstoy does have a rather substantial influence in the country music world: Jamey Johnson has the same facial hair. Also, “Between Jennings and Jones” was originally titled “Betwixt Gogol and Dostoevsky.” True story.

The Tolstoy reference is a rather transparent attempt to validate Jim’s “hillbilly scholar” thesis, but, regardless, Juli Thanki is a goddess.

Don’t jump the shark, Kelly…

This one is pretty dang desperate…and that’s why I like it. He’s so low that he’s not even asking her to come back home, he’s only asking that she reconsider it and even throws in a few preconditions. Excuse me while I go shed a tear. I think it might be one of my favorites on the album.

Oops, that was a very poorly constructed sentence. Hopefully, you get the gist though, because I’m too lazy to rewrite it.

Another thing that I thought was interesting in Kelly’s interview with him is that he said that the songs that made national charts quickly dropped from his set list while it was other songs with less mainstream popularity are the ones that everyone wants to hear at the shows.
