Jim, I also think your little brother is a mighty fine songwriter. Mighty fine. I’ve met him on a couple of occasions when he was in a round with my friend Anthony Smith.

My favorite songwriter, who Jamey Johnson said is one of his heroes, is my little brother Tony Lane. I’d also have to say my good friend Sonny Throckmorton is awsome. He wrote Don Henley’s favorite song The Way I Am.

Lots of great ones in the Lone Star State. Walt Wilkins is my favorite. But I love Radney Foster, Bruce Robison, Todd Snider, Randy Rogers, Rusty Weir also. And there’s some lesser known ones like James M Taylor from Ft. Worth & Terry Stephenson.

Without hesitation, Skip Ewing! No singer songwriter has ever made me feel music the way Skip does. Hate that when i sing his praises few people have heard of him, but i love telling them You’ve heard his music, You just don’t know it. Just got his new CD, autographed no less.
The pride of my collection.

You are right about Keith Follese! He is a really great melody man. I love the work he has done with Sam and Annie Tate!

Keith Follese really did change the country landscape in the late 90’s

Keith Follese is hands down my favorite writer. He has put out some incredible songs, like ‘The Way You Love Me,” and “Good Man.” I’ve also heard that Midas Records, which he works for, is going to be putting out Adam Gregory’s new album. Hopefully Keith has some songs on there!

Whoa, Chris, I didn’t realize it either. I don’t think I like any of those songs.
