Ted Hawkins possesses one of the most compelling voices you'll ever hear -- his straight-from-the-heart delivery will grab your attention and never let go. His own songs, rooted in the firmament of American country music and rhythm and blues, are the record of a life of ups and downs. His sense of verbal play and his ability to tell stories with conviction make for a spellbinding listening experience. On his second Rounder album, Ted's voice and acoustic guitar are supported by a small band on three cuts, and by the electric blues guitar of Night Train Clemons on two others.
