left your family on that hard worn train, left for dead on that hard worn trail

A little atmospheric cowboy music for your Supernatural Friday night. I, like a lot of folks, was introduced to Ryan Bingham through the film Crazy Heart (he wrote the Oscar winning theme song, "The Weary Kind"). I remember taking a gander at his first album, Mescalito, when it dropped in 2007 but at the time the twang of it wasn't quite my style. However, I'm really enjoying this year's Junky Star so I might have to give his older stuff another try. His voice has this wonderful dusty quality somewhat reminiscent of Tom Petty and I love me some good old fashioned country desperation songs. LOL, iTunes says that his songs "convey the same sort of grim fatalism and smoldering romance that pervades the novels of Cormac McCarthy." How can you not love it? ;) Seems appropriate for the night ahead.
