  • I am a big fan. Its cool he isnt like anyone around. He does his own thing, and has this late 60's thing going on, like he was stuck in some time warp and thinks it literally still is the 1960's.

    I also think its cool he has been so vocal of his support of Manson. He regularly performs a cover of his song in concert, and in interviews has even suggested that Manson was a hero for the oppressed. It takes guts to say that stuff.

    Anyways, I am looking forward to his future cd's.

    I thought the last cd had some of the most haunting antiwar tunes I have ever heard

    I really like some of his stuff.

    But, there is one song towards the end of Cripple Creek that sort of sounds like he is a child molester.

    Cripple Crow is a great album. He and his band were also amazing at Bridge School last year.
    It makes much more sense to live in the present tense.

    I saw this guy from some live streams from Bonnaroo last year. He immediately caught my attention and I was really getting into it. I kind of forgot about him though until now.....time to go pick up a cd.

    I dig his stuff. I think "When They Come" is such a beautiful, haunting song.

    Smokey Rolls Down Thunder Canyon is the only album I've heard from him, as it's the only album I have by him. I love it! Soon time to get another by him!
