It was 2002 when the CD Five Dollar Bill came out, and I was totally knocked out by this Canadian guy - Corb Lund - so much so, that I made it a point to cruise to see him on 6th during SXSW in 2003. After the show, I invited him to come to DC to do a session for us, which he obliged.
He was quirky and glib, and that has certainly become one of his hallmarks, but there is another side to him too, an ability to write authentically, dramatically; and he does both with perfect delivery. This decade has brought much growth for Corb Lund (or Core Blonde as the audience sometimes mispronounces!), and on the release of his latest album Losin Lately Gambler he combines the quick wit with the visual on "Talkin' Veterinarian Blues."
Here 'tis!
