  • He is the real deal. Saw him, Heard him, Met him. Took him for a horseback ride. It was bitchen to say the least.

  • This man is awesome, good music

  • Hunting hogs and cookin speed!!!

  • I dont see this guy as being Anti American. I aint even an American but I think a lot of his songs will translate globally to any working class person. I think he is just for the workers wherever you come from. Hell man, I am from a coal mining industry that was murdered by an evil UK government in the mid 1980s and I can totally relate to a lot of stuff this guy sings even if I am 3000 miles away!

  • James Mc Murty is the voice of the working poor. I love his music and agree with every word he says in "we can't make it here anymore",if you don't step off the bus in Detroit,or go to a town thats been left for dead by the textile industries. I don't think he is anti-american, I think he is fed up with the bullshit our government and corporate America are handing us.

  • ND DIGS J MCMurtry

  • STFU dumb ass crackers

    This man is on par with dylan, and one helluva lot better than springsteen

  • so he never said word one about obama? that's what i thought, thanks for clearing it up. we can't make it here was made in 05 and was an excellent song.  being anti government and anti american are two completely different things. how in the hell was it unamerican?

  • @tompetty832002 we cant make it here any more...we can but its damn hard

  • @JIM112271 Ahh Jim, you couldn't be more wrong! I'm not saying you are at fault, our population is very heavily propagandized now, courtesy of Rush and Glenn and sean and Fox and many many more, so you ain't alone. I heard "We Can't Make It Here" and it gave me hope, good ole middle class American HOPE. It showed me that there are other people who are able to see thru the illusory propaganda, who aren't afraid to take an honest, unflinching look at where we are, and are going.

  • @JIM112271 you are the kinda person that would bitch if you were hung with a new rope. JM is a true but rare patriot. Protesting the "kings" oppression of the subjevts. exacly what rock has always been a voice of resistance to the established status quo. Grow a pair

  • @JIM112271 Liberal and conservative are both imaginary constructs. If you buy into either your just not very smart, or more likely haven't thought it all the way through.

  • in what way? not being from the area, all i have to go on is the music is the music and i haven't heard him do it with that.

  • james rocks

  • Man james mcmurtry is amazing!!!

  • This is a really good song, I'll have to check out some of his other music.

  • Hey, if you like this check out his live album "Live In '03".

    Or go see him live. He's the real deal.

  • I have the album. It is one of my favorites. By anyone. I would love to see him live and plan to do so when I can.

  • this was really good loved it....awesome hmmm yeah.....

  • give this man a medal, he is a real gem.

  • i thot music like this was dead. good to know someone remembers their roots.

  • This is REAL MUSIC, keep up, if you can.

  • way to go bro! finally someone puts this guy up!
