Use to listen to him as a teenager..
He wrote some great pop tunes..

Love the Eggleston. Sadly, I still haven't made it over to see the show. Thanks for the reminder.

MM, thanks for the visit! Mike, I hope you make it to the show.

Thanks, B. I'm always down to hear more from this guy, because I haven't motivated to buy the albums yet.

And like Mike said, thx for the reminder about the Eggleston show. Wouldn't mind seeing this same photo "five minutes later" :)

You can't go wrong with Emitt. Pure pop confetti channeling McCartney. But, if looking for the 'Mirror' lp from which this track is taken...good hunting.

If you guys make it to the Whitney lemme know. Buy the book! Then go pinting in the spirit of channeling Eggleston some more.
