songs:illinois: Brewed in Texas Vol 2 - Good old Texas drinkin' music

songs:illinois: Brewed in Texas Vol 2 - Good old Texas drinkin' music (this goes out to Big Rock, Lonesome Music and The Rev. Frost...just because): "Here's some drinkin' music from the new Brewed in Texas Vol.2 compilation from Compadre Records. 20 drinkin' tunes from Texas roots artists seems like too many but once you hear the variety of ways to sing about Johnny Walker, Tequila and beer you'll be singing another (drunken) tune. If you like this you should check out Big Rock Candy Mountain, The Reverend Frost and Lonesome Music.

The bands on this comp range from the cream of the crop (Old 97's, Guy Clark and Charlie Robison) to up and comers (Randy Rogers Band, Jason Boland). One guy on here that at times gets a bad rap (for selling out w/ Ugly Americans and dating Sandra Bullock) is Bob Schneider but I've always liked his music including his solo major label debut Lonelyland. So I've included his song 'Lubricate The Death Machine' and also 'The Way Of The Fallen Is Hard' by Ray Wylie Hubbard (this is a new unreleased song that I heard him do live a few months back)."
