    Great Interview! I had Time Well Wasted for a year before I listened to it. Blew me away, bought every Brad Paisley album right away. Became a country guitar play due to Brad. I've got a YT video of me learning and teaching "I'll Take You Back" the first BP riff I learned in 2012. Big fan of Hayden Baker too.

      @@thezakkuhnshow it’s gotten dirtier for sure. The intro to famous people is perfection. Super fat without being too dirty but not as thin as some of the tracks on who needs pictures seemed to be. It was still ok up through the Play album and even into this is country music. But to be fair it’s not just his guitar tone but the overall recordings being way too compressed and got way too much going on at one time. But that could be said about most country music these days. Could be because everything’s done in the box these days. Maybe they should go back to tracking on tape.
