@redbeakman I had the exact same response when I first heard it. Your comment gives me goosebumps (I guess the song helps SMiLE). I was the same age as you when it came out. The cassette was in my car throughout most of my undergraduate studies - back when a mid-day beer run was the norm and I spent more days fishing than working. I met Jay backstage in STL one night. All I could say was, "Thank you."

@redbeakman to this day that album feels as though it wasn't written so much as it just dropped down through the ages into my collection. :) it's got an epic, timelss sound but done in jays seemingly offhand delivery. in a word, perfect!

@mat2trahan this is "Catching On" from the album "Trace"

@cyrano84 dave boquist... his brother jim is on bass;
dave is amazing, he was soo good for son volt... his trademark sound is what made son volts first two albums instant classics;
he had such a great presence as a musician and was great to see live;
while jay is obviously the heart and soul of the band, dave's guitar made the band that much better;
check out the full dvd of the son volt show on austin city limits, well worth the price, the quality of audio and video is perfect;

I must have listened to Trace 10,000 times. There was a period in my life from about 20-25 just after this was released in '95 that this was the Truth. Son Volt and UT to a lesser degree before just told it like it was without preaching and trusting the listener. Trace was refreshing because of this. There was no judgment or remedy, just life.
