5Guy Clark...An American treasure  Nov 19, 2009
I think that I have every album that Guy Clark has made. I'm always amazed that he is not more popular. His song writing is stunning. Always a pleasure. Over the years I've viewed his work as musical "comfort food", warm and satisfying. He is a true poet and fine guitar player.

4A Grand Master  Nov 15, 2009
As usual Guy Clark has turned out a CD loaded with songs that make you think, listen, and sometimes smile. His music fits your ears like a good pair of boots fit your feet. If you like Texas music and aren't a lover of the over produced junk that Nashville calls country music this CD is for you.

5Stuff that works  Nov 10, 2009
If you wanted to know all about the art and craft of songwriting, there is any number of things you could do. You could spend your entire life researching and studying it and trying to get a grasp on it. You could do all sorts of stuff like that.

Or you could spend an afternoon listening to Guy Clark.

This is Guy's latest offering, and he just keeps getting better.

5This one makes a three-way tie for my favorite Guy Clark CD  Oct 31, 2009
Guy Clark's one of those musicians who have not produced a CD I haven't found some aspect to like. In the case of "Somedays the Songs Write You," this CD is tied with "Boats to Build" and "Workbench Songs" as my favorite Guy Clark CD.

As an aspiring novelist, this CD's title caught my eye. Guy Clark's right, somedays you push to get the creative juices working and others it seems like ghosts are riding you. A cliche, but this song nails the creative process.

Whether the other ten songs were efforts Guy wrote or got from some other cosmic source, they're full of heart and power. "Guitar" talks about every musician's dream, finding that 'soul guitar' in a pawn shop. I heard this song live at Tennessee Shines and I swear the hair stood up on the back of my neck, it's so powerful. Then, there's whiskey, weather, and women and a whole lot of other topics that only a man who's been there can write about.

If you're just starting with Guy Clark, this CD's a great place to begin. If you're a veteran fan like me, I think you're going to find it one of his best.

5Phenomenal Artist  Oct 20, 2009
I just listened to 10 hours of Guy Clark's music on a long car ride. I have to check myself when talking to friends. I want to tell them, "This Guy is great!", as if there is any other Guy that is any good.
