Country music is particularly great at telling a story. Whether it’s gunslingers in the old west, or troubled relationships in a modern day setting, country music is great at shining a light on the lives of everyday people doing everyday things. On today’s show we discuss 3 albums that have plenty of good stories to tell.

Marty Robbins – Gunfighter Ballads and Trail Songs (Andy)

Brandy Clark – 12 Stories (Don)

Sturgill Simpson – The Ballad of Dood and Juanita (Dude)
