Rose Of The San Joaquin / The Man From God Knows Where (CD)
This is the only album (at the moment) I've heard from Tom Russell. It took acclimation, but I am very glad I happened upon it. The songwriting, vocals and instrumentation are excellent in every song. It's a shame Russell is such an unknown act, if this record is any indication, he has more artful skill than most of his contemporaries.
