I can listen to Tom Russell for hours, one CD after another. "Rayburn Crane" might be my favorite of his songs, but it's a close competition with the "White Trash Song" or "Blue Wing". EVERY thing he does is good!

My favorite album is The Rose of the San Joaquin. I saw Tom Russell in Denton, TX. He did "The Sky Above, The Mud Below" and brought the house down.

Listening to it now (The Man From God Knows Where). The plan was to play it as I worked on a paper for school, but I find myself just listening. Very good album as mentioned here below...
