Bob Frank

"Bob Frank was an outlaw songwriter's outlaw songwriter, a Vietnam veteran and graduate school dropout who had been too stubborn to make it as part of the Nashville music machine. He was tougher than Kristofferson and more spry than Cash ... The record lasts just longer than 30 minutes, but if it feels lengthier and weightier than that, it's because Frank relates his characters with such strength and poignancy. Some of these sketches are autobiographical and some observational, but all are rich with the annals of real life, little details that pull these people off of the page or out of the record's black groove".
