JEFF COWELL - LUCKY STRIKES AND LIQUID GOLD
numero 2015
"ten road weary tales from the wrong side of outlaw country, an isolated backwoods loner epic" -- sorry for back to back vinyl recs on an obscuro diy tape label blog but this is about as essential as it gets, mid 70s midwest private press gem that gives longtime favorites TIM BUCKLEY and GRAM PARSONS a run for their money, borrowing from classics BRADLEY'S BARN and JOHN WESLEY HARDING, thank god NUMERO saved it from oblivion, as they tend to do oh so well, shoo-in for my #1 reissue of the year
