Product DescriptionSmoky, elegant storytelling that drifts through a southern gothic haze and over a funky backbeat. Such is the unique and criminally under appreciated song craft of Larry Jon Wilson. Ahead and possibly outside of his time Wilson cut a handful of stellar yet neglected LPs for Monument Records in the mid-1970s. The first two are presented here in all their smouldering soul groove glory. From the windswept country-fried funk of Sheldon Churchyard to the heartfelt muse of Bertrand My Son, Wilson was praised and revered by his peers (Kristofferson, Van Zandt, Newbury et. al. ) but passed over by the Nashville mainstream. This deluxe 20 track collector's edition is remastered from the original Monument master tapes and presented with exclusive liner notes and rare photos.
