T. Tex Edwards Austin, Texas
T. Tex Edwards is an unsung pioneer of cowpunk & honky tonk murder ballads who started out in the '70s with the punk band
Nervebreakers.
His first solo album (with Out on Parole backing) was a stroke of demented genius that caused a stir when released by cult label Sympathy for the Record Industry
Records.
Later records with The Loafin' Hyenas & a collection INTEXICATED followed.

I've been listening to this recording almost nonstop since receiving it. After reading the liner notes from Jeff Smith, I was stunned to find out that this was such a recent release. The music sounds so classic and timeless, I couldn't believe that it had just been released this year! I've heard many of the songs before, and enjoyed seeing The Hickoids before - and this is a beautiful time capsule. If you like any of the songs, or the artists, or rock & roll, check it out! - Robert Scott
