stone cold pimpin' cadillac muzik

you'll soon find out

i'm not the kind of fellow
who is real tall
but i ain't short
on words

that being said, i'm not even sure
where to start with this man
i don't write reviews for magazines
i'm not talented like all these other folks out here
in the blogosphere
but this man's words
are made up
of just about everything i could never find a way to say
and if that don't sum it up
well it's just going to have to

musically, the man is self taught
and if you are into folks' stories
well he's got one of his own
and if you couldn't tell by the score
you'll know after you google his name
a time or two

i saw him play @ the uptown theatre in KC
and the folks he plays with
make "the band", the backup singers for the stones, and collective genius of leon russel
seem like roadside buskers
he sat off to the side
not out front
just doing his thing
sometimes barely audible
i couldn't tell if someone was drivin' a railroad spike
straight through the middle of my soul
but i sure as hell wasn't gettin' up to find out
it was that good...
