I saw this guy touring with Reckless Kelly in Birmingham, AL. I enjoyed him more than RK. I am a big RK fan. I bought his album there, like I have done a dozen times before, to no avail. Thank god, it was actually good. Now I wish I would have gotten there sooner. He sounded great. Very understated, but great sound. Now that I listened to his album, I really want to see him again. It will take a few albums to get him going, but I think he will get there. He is a huge talent. I hope he does not go the Lyle Lovette route as he is better than that (though he does a great impersonation). If he continues to do what he should he will be successful in his own right. High marks!
