Mac Leaphart - That Train
There's probably been tons of songs about trains. Mac Leaphart's rhythm instantly takes you on a train ride while he actually "still ain't got that train". American Songwriter called the song "a clever bundling of nostalgic allusions and raw honky-tonk harmonies." We think it's just a perfect country song, great storytelling, amazing video. What's not to like about that?
Also, please check out our friend Declan Culliton's review of Mac Leaphart's album "Music City Joke" on lonesomehighway.com:
"Tarred with the same brush as his icons John Prine, Guy Clark and Hayes Carll, Mac Leaphart is a storyteller with a gift for transforming his tales of bad luck, poor life choices and broken dreams into song."
