But I agree, El Capitan is his best, excepting perhaps Starlight on the Rails.<BR/><BR/>If you like this album, you'd probably love an album by Jody Stecher & Kate Brislin called Heart Songs - the Old Time Country Songs of Utah Phillips. They do some of these songs and some that he never recorded, and they do them better than he had ever imagined.The Irate Piratehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11424429160753219350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6395909822324046048.post-19496304579823547082008-03-18T04:42:00.000-06:002008-03-18T04:42:00.000-06:00I've bought all his records along the years, but t...I've bought all his records along the years, but thanks the same.<BR/>El capitan is, maybe, his best, pity Rounder doesn't re-release it<BR/>[img=http://media4.dropshots.com/photos/302827/20050823/144121.jpg]El capitan[/img]cianfullihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02542323749153676405noreply@blogger.com
