Listened to this when I was out in the car earlier. Still love it 40 years after I heard it first.

I was reading about this chap recently, hadn’t come across him before, this is a lovely tune reminiscent of Tom Waits.

:joy:

I’ve posted David Ackles stuff here before either on this thread or the Vinyl thread. This one is one of my favourite albums. American Gothic is worth a listen to.

Elton John is a big fan. You’ll find a clip on YouTube of Elton and Elvis Costello covering this.
