Most folks don’t know ole JJW was a New Yorker before he came to TX and went “Country”
Hell of a songwriter. Pretty fair singer.
Kinda like Ray Benson from Asleep At The Wheel. He’s from Philly.
Both carved out good niches in the early Texas Outlaw Music Era. Along with Willie and Waylon.

Hard to beat Waylon. Probably my favorite of all TX singers.

I really like Asleep At The Wheel too. Like you said, They got to TX as soon as they could !
And with a little help from King George:

But Jerry Jeff, Ray Wylie, Gary P. Nunn did their part...
Got to meet JJW and RWH in the old Heart of Texas Music Store in Austin many years ago. Both were shopping for guitars, and Ray Wiley Hubbard traded one of his in that day.

Redneck Mother is hard to beat after a few beers😁. It’ll get almost everybody singing.
That’s pretty funny.
