The only point I've ever tried to make, is that nobody around here is qualified to qualify/quantify the abilities of any of the players mentioned by Spuds earlier (...well, maybe Booch...) To say "this guy is better than that guy by a lot..." is ridiculous for anyone on this site, because you have absolutely no clue what you're talking about. I certainly don't, and never attempt to say that I do.
I'm going to say this as respectfully as possible, but this entire statement is you talking loudly through your own ass........I don't think you can qualify this statement in any way, shape, or form....with regards to MOS, Barrin, Sol El, or Hurl.......
I don't have a lot to contribute except how stunned I am that you created content....good lord.......
Fwiw, going to the 2nd Olds College Brewery Cask Night, tonight. They did a Cherry Sour Saison last month.....I think it's an IPA of some sort tonight. Looking forward to seeing what the kids have come up with...they've done some neat one-off's!
He got a boost from family money. Money is everything. It allowed him to hire Dave Cobb to produce his record and open some doors for him. Again, the kid is okay, but he's not great or deserving of all the success necessarily. Kinda like Brett Kissel, but that's a whole 'nother story....
I get why people like his stuff, but vocally he's not as strong as I was expecting. He's a solid writer, to be sure, but I was expecting more, vocally. A little too far outside the box for me. I love Corb Lund , but this is a bit too far outside...
