The New York Times has released its 54 Best songs of 2019. 

On Lucky n° 7 we find 'The Fact of Love' from Joe's latest album : The Gospel According to Water.

The NY Times wrote about this song :

His lyrics are full of perfectly enigmatic quatrains, like the opening verse of a song on the new album, “The Fact of Love”: “My eyes are closed but they are raised/Keeping light both out and in/I will walk this river, dazed/Without a trace that I have been.”

Jason Isbell presented us this song as : Beautifully performed and recorded. Really interesting guitar playing and a smart and tender lyric. 



It's wonderful to see Joe's work so appreciated ! You deserve this, and so much more !
