Jason Isbell Pledges ‘Alabama Blue’ Album If Doug Jones Wins Governor Race

In 2020, Jason Isbell made a promise: If Joe Biden won Georgia in the presidential election, he would record an album of covers dedicated to the Peach State. Despite President Trump’s futile attempt to “find” additional Republican votes, Democrats took Georgia — and the White House. And Isbell made good on his pledge. He released the excellent Georgia Blue in October of 2021, which included his take on songs by Georgia artists alongside special guests Brittney Spencer, Brandi Carlile, Julien Baker, and Amanda Shires, who also designed the cover art.

3 Lost Alabama Neighborhoods That Disappeared From the Map

Alabama’s missing neighborhoods are sometimes hidden beneath places whose present purpose seems obvious: a military installation, industrial land or a redeveloped city center. Their earlier residential lives can be much harder to see. The houses are gone, street patterns have changed, and a name that once meant home may appear mainly in an archive.
