    With the benefit of a song selection cherry picked from his Truckers years to his most recent solo work, he and a never-tighter 400 Unit make the best album-length case yet for Isbell as one of America's most underappreciated singer-songwriters.

    The results might qualify Live From Alabama as something more than a way station between Isbell's last studio record and his next one.

    If you haven't seen Isbell and the 400 Unit on-stage, Live from Alabama will likely convince you to show up the next time they play in your area, and if you already have, this will remind you why you walked home impressed.
