Lyle Lovett Prepares First Album in 10 Years, “12th of June”

He has an acquired taste style, great writer and really friendly on top of that. My oldest son sat next to him at Dallas/Fort Worth International airport while they got their boots shined... said he was super friendly....

Always liked Lyle Lovett. Love his style. I'm not big into country, but I've always liked the country artists that lean heavily into the folk side of things like John Denver, Gordon Lightfoot and many others.

=====================================
"Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will
give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I
am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your
souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light."
- Jesus, from Matthew 11:28-30

I guess it depends on what you call country. I always liked bluegrass, but considered it folk and not country. I was wrong. . .it's both.

I never was a country fan till about 1970 when I heard Kris Kristofferson on the car radio when I was driving home from work.

The best country workshop I ever saw was at the 1988 Winnipeg Folk Festival. Ian Tyson was the host and Jerry Jeff Walker, Guy Clark and a guy I'd never heard of with really big hair, named Lyle Lovett made up the participants. I was already a big fan of Ian, Jerry Jeff and Guy and I soon became a fan of Lyle as well.

-1962 Martin D-21
-1950 Gibson LG1
-1958 Goya M-26
-1974 Yamaha FG75 high strung
-A number of banjos, mandolins, Autoharps, ukuleles, dulcimers, mouth harps, a Tele clone and various other stuff.
-I own a fiddle, but only play it when Maggie and the cats are all out of the house.
