I saw Brian Wright live in DC a few months ago and he was incredibly awesome. I recommend picking up everything he’s done so far. This particular track is my favorite one of one of his most recently albums, “Rattle Their Chains.”
Okay enough about Brian Wright. Two more days until I’m on vacation…just two…more…days…
Love that YouTube tossed out half a dozen Tom Waits tracks for me to listen to after this one. YouTube seems to think that Wright is an heir to Waits’s songwriter-poet legacy. I think so, too. I listened to his “Rosalee” and the lyrics blew me away.
