Guy Clark died today.
He wrote some great songs and made two strong albums in the seventies.
You can get both of them for £2.99, which is plain ridiculous.
My favourite song of his was "Desperados Waiting For A Train".
My favourite version of that was by Mallard, the group formed by former members of Captain Beefheart's Magic Band.
Here it is.
Freddie White also did a fine rendition of this tune - and it's on YouTube.
ReplyDeleteYou are right £2.99 is barmy. Tremendous records.
ReplyDeleteWell done. I almost forgive you for leaving "Lick My Decals Off Baby" out of your book on albums that charted in '71.Almost.
