“Whiskey” is a great musical word. It starts softly like a whisper and climaxes with a hard k sound.

The ultimate is Chris Stapleton, whom I love. Nearly every song on his last three releases is about, or refers to, whiskey.

Fantastic sleuthing! I gotta wonder if corporate interests are at play here, too. I mean, Willie’s opened shows with a whiskey ad since the Reformation, and Dale Watson’s been sponsored by Lone Star since the dustbowl.
