I have the album...had no idea he was only 22 and it's so cool to see him playing here - and the Houston Cosmic Cowboy? Oh, yeah - Texas country - Guy Clark, Rusty Weir, folks at Anderson Fair - Roseanna Cash's husband...grew up in Houston off of Wayside Drive, son of a barhop at an all night dive....
I so miss songs that tell stories - with a twang. Jimmy's great for grapefruit, juicy fruit...but I gotta have the twang!
Since I found your Willis videos, I can not stop watching them. Now I have to get myself to Austin and see him when he's at Threadgill's. I can't believe I still have this chance. Man he can really sing and play that D-18!
When I was 11 a friend of my older brother came back to Ohio from Austin with a brand new record, just out. I wore it out. Amazing to finally SEE him playing these songs. Thank you.
I miss Threadgills.

No problem, I can do you a CD if you want, Rabbie.

Horrifying to find he only put out one album, was twenty when he wrote the songs, about twenty two when he recorded them.
