The Tyler Childers Top 5 songs got me thinking.
What are some good story teller singers - song writers.

Robert Earl Keen, Steve Earle are a always on rotation with me, Townes Van Zandt. David Allen Coe does a good job.

What are some that I can get into?

Not a huge Bruce Springsteen fan but the Nebraska album is great. Highway Patrolman is my favorite.

They don't call Tom T. Hall the Storyteller for no reason.
