One of the handful of songwriters who keep alive the tradition of strong, literate songwriting in an age when a lot of songs float away on the wind after a few listens, Tom Russell sings to a disappearing America. "The Kid From Spavinaw," from his Modern Art album (2003), is an honest and moving testimonial to the life and trials of Mickey Mantle, the great Yankee slugger.

  • "If I'd known I was gonna live this long, I'd 'ave taken better care of myself...."

  • excellent!

  • Beautiful.

  • Love the way Tom gets right inside the head and character of the people he sings about!

    Brilliant song, brilliant video Duke, and the "better care of myself" line could have been written for me! LOL.

    Thanks for sharing the music, my friend ~ Res

  • I love this artist..Tom Russell speaks directly to my heart.
