better late than never I guess...& yes, I know I deleted the photos & the logo & all that pretty stuff but I'm just too damn tired to deal with how much blogger sucks for photos right now...and now...the latest new from Jesse Dayton & if you don't know his music, are you sure we're friends?

Hardchargers-

Talkin to my engineer from Casa Studios the other day and he said, "Ya know, ya can't throw a stick without hitting a singer/songwriter in Texas...but this new duets record is a throwback in the sense that it is a singer's singer record". Steve, I would have to agree...post Jerry Jeff, Townes, Guy Clark, Robert Earl Keen, who are all genius' in their own right, (and I listen to them all, especially Townes)...but they wouldn't sing a George Jones song to save their life... This new duets record has the most powerful vocals I've ever recorded. Brennen Leigh sounds like a cross between Loretta Lynn and Tammy Wynette...we pushed the hell out of each other!

This THURSDAY (DEC. 7th) at the CONTINENTAL CLUB in AUSTIN, Brennen and I will be debuting some of this new material live, plus some JD BAND favs for the Solid Chrome Dancers...(show starts @ 11:30, so after Chapparal quits at the Spoke, follow Jeff on over to the CC!)...also, on before us that night is what I think is the best rock n roll trio in Texas...HONKY!
