Route 41

About ROUTE 41: The recording of ROUTE 41 is in part a reflection of my journey up U.S. Route 41 from Atlanta to Nashville over a dozen years ago. On that trip I took some inspiring songwriters with me, or at least their songs. And of course met so many more when I arrived. A few of these writers weren't far behind me on their own journey up Route 41. Others traveled some other stretch that got them to Music City. Nashville has been the most generously inspiring place I've ever known. I love living in the same town as John Prine, Bobby Bare, and Tom T. Hall... and so many of the songwriters, and dear friends on this record! jb
