Like with Van Zandt and Clark, I think Temple is a better songwriter than vocalist and the grit of his songs are better presented without the added distractions. I'm also a huge fan of acoustics, so this is most likely just my biases talking. I do respect your opinions though, and I obviously wouldn't have purchased that first CD if I didn't hear something I liked as well.

Randy Rogers hopped up on stage with him to sing a tune or two, and they seemed to be well received. I am curious as to what makes someone better without a full band? Obviously, I would never appreciate a Townes Van Zandt band show (if there ever was one) as much as a solo show, or Guy Clark for that matter. For the most part though, a band adds considerable musical impact that cant be topped except with an artist whos intimacy I crave. Is that how it is with you for OT? Brody,

I saw him again this past Friday night with a full band and wasn't diggin' it either. To me he was way better by himself, but even then I feel like Grider is a stronger artist. I'm still interested in hearing his new material, though. <a href="http://www.lonestarmusic.com/album.asp?aid=4334" rel="nofollow">Lone Star Music has it available for pre-order.</a> I saw Owen Temple do an acoustic show a couple of months back and bought one of his CDs at the time, but wasn’t impressed with it.

Apparently Owen has a new record coming out first week of October. Have you heard anything about this? Brady,
