Boogie Back To Texas
Geoff,
Perfect opening and closing songs. Everything between wasn’t bad either!
It’s interesting that hearing each tune played by another made me appreciate it more and reminded me what it is about each that I love.
Eric Taylor: “Heard a dead man say he wished he felt the other way.” Actually, every line is masterful.
McMurtry: “She lost her mind and she never missed it.”

Best,
Bill Laiches
