There were none better than Marty at marrying lyrics and music. El Paso is haunting, as is El Paso City. There is something about Big Iron that really gets me as well. One time Marty came to Des Moines for a stock car race. Something went haywire with his car. He bought a car from a local driver. When the race was over, he gave the car back, along with the money that he had won.
Not a real member - just an ordinary guy who appreciates being able to hang around and say something once in awhile.

Not only a less than minimally educated person, but stupid and out of touch as well.

Democracy is not freedom. Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to eat for lunch. Freedom comes from the recognition of certain rights which may not be taken, not even by a 99% vote. *Marvin Simkin* L.A. Times (1992)
The record industry pushes out crap so fast, it's hard for them to produce any classic singers anymore. As long as they get a hit single they are happy. The cowboy in the continental suit is another good one
