Notes: Don't
let some of their more humorous tunes fool you, these guys are
serious musicians and can play with the best of them. Along with
my favorite Farmer's tune "God is Here Tonight", a tale
of a wandering looney who's in touch with the big fella on a personal
level, there are two great covers. The first is by Tom Waits and
the second a classic from the man in black, Johnny Cash.
After you listen to this record you'll believe it was Country Dick
and not Mr. C who actually taught those weepin' willows how to
cry. The lone buffalo on the cover is intent on finding his own
happiness despite the nasty clouds overhead. I can't endorse these
guys and their own brand of music enough. Sadly, Country Dick has
left the building, but at least we've got his legacy on vinyl to
comfort us. Sleep well Dick...
