Re: Criminally underappreciated
Jumping in, I got 3: Chris Wall: Tainted Angel -I don't care what anybody says, I think Chris is the best damn songwriter in the world and I'll stand up on Steve Earle's coffetable in my cowboy boots and say that. (Dylan's too) I still don't understand why he's not a millionaire by now. Kacy Crowley: Anchorless -I just plain like this one. Glad it was re-released but nobody I know but me likes it. Dale Watson: Blessed or Damned -I think all of Dale's have been underappreciated. He's got a great following, but album sales don't show it. cory _ Do You Yahoo!?

Re: Rusty Wier
Ditto on that. I'm really think his 70's albums were some of the best to come out of that time. I still see Rusty play every now and again, the last time being at Gino's Italian Grill w/ about 4 others who weren't family. He's still a great act to see on stage sitting up on a barstool. He recently put out a new album called Are We There Yet. Before that, I think his only one for a long time was a Live at Poor David's Pub from Dallas CD, which is great. If you're ever in Austin, I'm sure you'd be able to catch him. But I don't think that he leaves town too much. Good to see a thread about one of the greats, cory np: Bukka Allen, Sweet Valentine "Stoned Slow and Rugged" from 1975 was one of the decade's best "outlaw country" LPs. Was listening to one the other day and wondering what ever became of Mr. Wier and what might he be doing now. _ Do You Yahoo!? Get your free @yahoo.com address at http://mail.yahoo.com
Why I love Austin -Reply
NP: Kelly Willis, "What I Deserve" John, I had a question about the new Kelly Willis album. Does Tx Music Express already have it or do you have a promo copy or something. And if TX Express has it, can I order it now or do I have to wait till the end of February? Thanks, Cory
