That’s the Man Time Forgot
Exactly
He's not Hank, Not George or Merle, not Lefty or Buck, not Johnny or even 1970's The Killer, he ain't even Gram! Faron Young is jealous in his grave. He's his own unique thing and he's rockin' the 2020's in mid 20th century style. It's like he's taking it all and putting it together for the first time. Beautiful man. If he doesn't make you miss your baby, wreck your religion and give you hope you've got no heart.
Yes! That's it.
He has become my favorite artist. Powerful ARTIST 👊🔥🏁⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️
The music is just so heartfelt and rich, it's hard to listen to much else. And the videos/short films, are really evocative. He's making all the right choices, seems to me. And btw, I don't listen to hardly any C&W.
He's all I listen to right now. It's been years. He digs deep into the music. My type of person. The sauce is having to sing to eat and getting the blues he didn't ask for. So he's well seasoning like Creole food. Listen to me. The real deal. He's outstanding of several levels. His band is perfection and organically built.
I don't know what he is but he is bad ass! I can not thing of any better way to describe Charley Crockett.
I love this album!!! I play it over and over!!!
A duo with Charlie Crockett and Sierra Ferrel would killer
My favorite album, of his.
I just found out about him from outlaw country on SiriusXM, he's got a great voice.
I found him on western AF , it's a you tube channel, features a lot of singer songwriters
the first country superstar in a while that i have learned all the lyrics to his beautiful music 🤠🙏thanks charley
I can't believe how good this guy is
Love ❤️ your music BRO it is so POWERFUL 🤙❤️⚒️💯🍀
Just listenin to all these Crockett songs on repeat...
The way he said “that sound I’m getting closer to” gets me real excited to see what else we have yet to hear from Charlie Crockett
You know this man has stories to tell and that he wrote it all into his song.
I really like the music videos as well. Great filming locations too
so far charley has put new orleans music into modern context through streaming, he truly is genre bending, and too me the only way to put it is new orleans/west texas sound, because its not just blues, not just country or soul, its an amalgamation of all of them
Charley is special. He is a musician’s musician.
This is that dude!! Love your music bro. Keep groovin & movin my brotha.
They are playing Crockett quite a bit on 96.3 Sun radio here in the Hill country shout out from Granite Shoals Texas
My first gfs family lived in granite... Terrible place to be honest
So far this is my favorite country album of the year. I would Like to see maybe Charley play with Colter Wall, Charlie Marie, Nick Shoulders, Gabe Lee, or Emily Scott Robinson. That would be a dream of mine. Keep up the amazing work Charley
Paul Cauthen duo would be interesting as well
Him and Shoulders would be very interesting. I get a different feeling from the both of them but I’d be interested to see what they could put together
I saw Mr. Crockett in November live in Seattle. Hands down one of the best live performances I seen since the Foo Fighters and Dave Matthew’s back in 2015. Love his music, and I wish they would play it on the radio but they don’t, that’s why I quit listening to radio and stream Spotify
The guitarist for Foo Fighters, Chris Shiflett, has a country band side project and an awesome podcast Walking The Floor. Good stuff.
I don’t detect any autotune on his voice, which I really appreciate
I was introduced to you by my boss back in February and I can’t get enough. Literally my favorite artist right now 😍 Fool somebody else has been on repeat every day since it came out!!
This was the first CD I purchased in awhile. The album spoke to me and I just knew I had to support Mr. Crockett, an amazing artist.
WACO is album of the year.
I came here from the big billboard on Lamar BLVD in ATX near 5th.
Listened to the album and knew I liked him. Got to catch him live in Cedar Park this weekend and learned that I LOVE him. What a GREAT show! Plan to see him live every chance I get.
At last. A real country and western singer. I cannot stand the shit they call country these days. Love this guys sound and wish I knew where he buys his clothes!
I read an interview where he said that he mostly goes to thrift shops.

Better than flannel like every other country guy
Love his music.. It reminds me of listening to records with my grandmother.. She had like 250 country albums from the 50s to the 80s .. I relate to his music through my life of work on the road , Hard work .. job after job .. never stop even when it all falls apart . Charlie understands the dark side if life .
My favorite country-album of 2020, it's so powerful and love every track on it. Don't Cry, Lily My Dear and Paint It Blue are the favorites at the moment. Want to see Charley live! What a party that must be 😄
I just love this sound. It’s all his for sure. Great music.
That's absolutely amazing record from the first track to the last, I love that record
Thank you Charley, keep doin what you do.
ngl i found some of his songs and didn't think anything of them didn't bother saving them would see them suggested and who would listen to them every now but as soon as i heard this album i've been hooked i've listened to the album countless times the pacing and flow of it is great and obvs the songs are amazing. I'm even going back and listening to the other songs of his i first listened to and i'm loving them and not quite sure why they didn't click before. can't wait to see where he goes from here and would 100% recommend giving the album and his other songs a listen.
He's playing my town on Sunday night, I will be there!
My new favorite artist! Keep up the great sounds and keep it deep soul country. A waltz would be great too as we love danceable tunes. Thanks, listen daily
Here you go. czcams.com/video/ThRmtFmy4TE/video.html
Legend. Great album and my most played in August. Big respect from Scotland
Thanks Charley🤘
I love this guy!!!
Great song. Great album!
Call him a breath of fresh air, if anything
as a old mature guy raised on hard rock and hard country i cant stand the "new" music with that rap beat stuff. it`s rap or its folk or it`s pop but it sure as hell aint country. but for charlie i love his music i feel like ive heard it before but cant remember who. keep on doing what your doing charlie. hope to see in concert one day
It feels like an old friend, right? Kinda like you've heard it before, but not quite. But it makes you feel good.
I fucking love Charley
Me casually watching this doc about my hero realizing he was in the town I go to college at recording his album😭
Hello from Piqua Ohio. Hard times!
The album is 10 out of 10. Great album.
add the fact that he wrote it in a month.
Charlie Man …. Charlie is changing me 2022
The Man!
Gulf coast r&b country & western perfection! Got the Valley lp is hard times coming out on vinyl?
When you said your favorite on the album was Run Horse Run, I said fuck yes! I love that song. =)
mister charley you saved me
Charley
Well I don't agree with the pandemic! I do believe in excellent music and Good lyrics! Keep up the good work.
This man is a genius not everyone will get it
yes
he's quickly become my favorite Artist, surpassing good ole Johnny Horton.
Dammit boy
i hate all the SHIT nashville puts out. artists like charley crockett are awesome
Charlie if you're listening a duo with
Puddles Pity Party or go on the together would be put of this world .
Too cool for covid
Diamond Joe is his best,..
Is Charlie Crockett a descendant of Davy Crockett?
I don't care WHAT they call it. The music is great. It's different, but in a good way. It's fresh and not the same old rehashed bullshit. Whatever THEY are telling Charley is motivating him. They say, that won't work. That's no good. He does it anyway and is successful. I can't get enough of it. THEY aren't always right. Charley's shows for later this summer are already mostly sold out. Obviously, he's doing something right. He's connecting with people. My advise? Follow your heart. THEY don't know your heart. Jack needs to restart his podcast. First guest should be Charley.
That!s the time that man forgot
When is this man gonna admit he’s secretly steph curry lol
I thought the exact same thing
Charley is a meme.
He's as fake as they come and that's a fact.
This man's lived his life busking on the streets all around the world, playing for change. If that isn't real, I don't know what is.
What's fake even mean? What records have you put out?
Maybe the teeth, but he's got some damn good tunes.
🤣this comment about what does fake even mean 😂😂😂
The music is good in my opinion. Some folks talk about him like with his teeth. Who cares? I went to the concerts for good music not to watch him bite on a carrot. Shit.
