V&V Episode 061 Will Johnson(Centro-matic, South San Gabriel) & The Replacements' Let It Be

Oh boy. That could be applicable to any number of situations brought about by this episode. My guest, Will Johnson, is, in my humble opinion, a behemoth of the indie folk rock scene. Partially in thanks to his collaborations with artists such as Jason Molina, Vic Chestnutt, and the Monsters of Folk crew(i.e. Connor Oberst, Jim James, M. Ward and Mike Mogis). His particular brand of raw, introspective folk is completely captivating and singularly unique. With that being said, it is an absolute pleasure and honor for me to have had this conversation with him about a record that was inspiring to him on so many levels, that I'll just leave it to him to describe. I have a feeling many people will relate to some of these sentiments.
