Carl wrote "Closing Mainstreet Down" about the change of small town America over the last 30 years. He grew up in a small town in Kentucky that used to have a Mainstreet lined with small mom and pop store fronts and close by were several other small towns that were very similiar. Now the scene is much different as the streets are lined with empty buildings and vacant lots. This song is fitting for most small towns in America today.Carl wrote the song "Trains Don't Run Here Anymore" about the decline of the railroad industry in Eastern Kentucky and other rural areas of America. The song features Carl on guitar in the opening and outro of the song and very strong and lonesome fiddle work by Tim Crouch throughout. Clay hess compliments with his bluesy banjo style to round out the instrument arrangement. You can almost hear a locomotive chugging down the line and you will be taken back in time to a place were kids would leave pennies on the track and running across train trussles when the lonesome sound of the engine is moaning in the distance.
