Great CD! You need to buy it immediately if you like good music.
What an amazing collection of songs. With Strother Martin stealing the scene right in the middle. No failure to communicate here. The opener "Sit Right Here" sets the tone for a listening session guaranteed to make you smile, remember old friends and be thankful in general. All things Walt's music can help you do when you need it most. To try to single out any one or 2 songs would be an injustice to the rest on this record. So: Just buy it and smile, remember old friends and be thankful in general that Walt writes these songs. Oh and buy many and give them to people who could use a smile.
Been a Ray Wylie fan forever, well at least middle school and "Redneck Mother"! GRIFTER'S HYMNAL...another work of art from my favorite Old-School Texas Singer/Somgwriter/Guitar-smith!!!
"Couldn't fully commit to the Devil, so his ink says "665.9"....Damn I Dig Ray Wylie!! ENJOY...HIGHLY RATED FROM ONE OLD REDNECK!!!
Amazing! From "Gin, Smoke, Lies" all the way to "Quite While I'm Ahead"; you'll listen to it over & over.
TOP RATING. I love all his albums but this one tops "Snake Farm" in my book. This man has the chops!!! He can sing, write, play, grunt and groan to perfection!! Y O U M U S T B U Y!!
I bought a few CD's on our visit to Gruene from Seattle to see Reckless Kelly...the Sons of Bill was recommended by the folks at LSM and it is a gem.(The best we picked up)..It's all their own sound...but you hear influnces of Springsteen ,Mark Knopfler, Wilco and Gin Blossoms...Like when you listened to early Beatles and heard Carl Perkins in George's guitar work....these guys tip their hats to their influences yet cook up a great unique set of songs....Musically and lyrically this is the best I have heard so far in 2012.
I can't wait to see where these guys take their fans over the next years...that will be fun. But for now, roll the windows down and crank this one up.
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this cd! I highly recommend it to anyone and everyone!!!
Great album. Love the Texas country feel and great song writing. Get started the next one!
