For more than 30 years, Jerry Joseph has been strapping on a guitar and chasing down truth, understanding and soul with a tenacity and resonant skill that mark him as a hard charging kindred spirit to Joe Strummer, Warren Zevon and Patti Smith. While not a household name or critic's darling, Joseph is the archetypal musician's musician, something resoundingly clear on his new album, The Beautiful Madness, available everywhere now, and produced by Patterson Hood of Drive-By Truckers, who also wrote the liner notes. The album runs the whole gamut of Jerry's songwriting, from heavy ballads to upbeat county tunes, like the first-released single, Days of Heaven. The Truckers are there to keep everything lean and trim. And the guest performances from Mike Cooley and Jason Isbell are honest and heart-felt.
