1-CD mit 36-seitigem Booklet, 25 Einzeltitel. Spieldauer ca. 75 Minuten. -- Billy Stone ist einer der wenigen Singer / Songwriter aus Texas, dessen Songs locker die Grenzen zwischen Country und Southern Rock überschreiten, die von Folk zu R&B wechseln und auf Rock 'n‘ Roll atemlose Stille folgen lassen. Und das Beste ist, alles sind Songs aus Billys eigener Feder. Er wurde in Dallas, Texas, geboren und zog in den späten Siebzigern nach Nashville, Tennessee, und wehrt sich vehement gegen das Etikett ‚Nashville Songwriter‘. 'Ich schreibe Lieder für die Menschen, und wenn ein Countrysänger oder Rocksänger oder wer sonst etwas darin hört und es aufnimmt - großartig, aber in der Regel nehme ich die Dinge so, wie sie kommen.' Zu den Künstlern, die Billys Songs aufgenommen haben, gehören The Forester Sisters, Johnny Lee, Gary Stewart, The Carter Family, Jimmy Hall und Dan Toler, Vassar Clements, Bertie Higgins, Joe Sun, Billy Crash Craddock und David Frizzell. Die 25 Songs hier sind u. a. ‘This Old 22’, ‘Grandma's Old Gas Stove’, ‘Ain't No Tellin' What A Fool Will Do’, ‘Sight For Sore Ears’, u. v.m.
1-CD with 36-page booklet, 25 tracks. Playing time approx. 75 mns. -- Billy Stone is one of those rare Texas-bred singer-songwriters whose songs flow easily from country to southern-rock, from folk to R&B, from rock 'n' roll to pin-drop quiet. Best of all, they're all Billy Stone songs. A Dallas, Texas native and Nashville resident since the late Seventies, Stone resists the tag, Nashville-Songwriter. 'I write songs for people and if a country act or rock act or whatever hears something and records it, great, but my main focus is to call 'em as I see 'em.' Artists who have recorded Billy's songs include The Forester Sisters, Johnny Lee, Gary Stewart, The Carter Family, Jimmy Hall and Dan Toler, Vassar Clements, Bertie Higgins, Joe Sun, Billy 'Crash' Craddock and David Frizzell. 25 songs here include ‘This Old 22’, ‘Grandma's Old Gas Stove’, ‘Ain't No Tellin' What A Fool Will Do’, ‘Sight For Sore Ears’ etc..
