...Bill’s songwriting compares, most favorably, with... John Hartford[and]Kris Kristofferson, respectively. His own vocals...prove utterly convincing...
From the Artist
I've been writing songs for a long time. I felt like it was time to get a group of 'em out there. This CD is a show I did at Chapel Hill's "The Cave" back in November, 2001, with a bit of studio editing.The album is about the poems...errr...songs. It bears repeated listenings. If you like it you'll like Libby and my Copper Creek CD, "South of Nowhere," which has it's own Amazon page. Just remember--I'm NOT the deceased comedian but the live fiddler.
Album Description
This is a live album of 17 original songs performed and written by Bill Hicks--the fiddler and co-founder of the Red Clay Ramblers, NOT the deceased comedian of the same name. The songs range from witty to wry--reflecting life on the road and life in general. Bill plays guitar only (as it's live and he's not fast enough any more to grab the fiddle when the breaks come around).
