First Lyle song I heard was She's no Lady, I was hooked. I live in Austin Oct to March and have for last 3 decades writing west Texas country. I'm still not from Texas Lyle was so fkn good in Napa a few weeks back Uptown Theatre is so fun to sing in.
I QUITE LITERALLY SLEEP UNDERNIETH THE LONE STAR ON THE SIDE OF THE END OF THE FRANKLIN MOUNTIANS IN EL PASO, TEXAS EVERY NIGHT, & SO DO THE DOGS. THAT'S RIGHT. YOU'RE -NOT- FROM TEXAS.
I cover this song solo. Such a simple, yet evocative song. With the large band here, it becomes ethereal. The Cello providing velvet to the mix, and the Steel like teardrops falling from the sky. A perfect backdrop for Lyle to tell his sweet little tale.
