Townes Van Zandt, David Rodriguez, and I had known each other since the early '70's and a little coffeehouse on Richmond Avenue in Houston, Texas called Sand Mountain. The folk club served cherry cokes with whipped cream on top, and potato chips. I had to play there for six weeks, Monday through Thursday, for no money 'til the owner, Mrs. Carrick, would hire me...for a Thursday night.

On this recording, twenty years later, the three of held court in a theatre in the Rice University area of Houston. It was surely a miracle to be in the same town and have musical friends like these you could have so much in common with so many years later.

This performance was the only time my mother got a chance to hear and meet the good fellow that named a kid after me

and Wrecks Bell.
