Robert Earl Keen is a classic Texas Troubador. It's a pretty select group of great writers, singers and pickers from The Lone Star State, including luminaries Lyle Lovett, Joe Ely, Kinky Friedman and Delbert McClinton. My son gave me a Christmas present to see Robert Earl live in Atlanta a couple of years back, and, he did not disappoint. He performed today's Countdown tune along with about 3,500 roudy fans who knew every single word, including me and mine.
Robert Earl proves that irony, sarcasm and humor are alive and well in his musical world. And we are all the better for it. Maybe you see someone you know in the video or, heavens to Betsy, yourself. Wouldn't that be a hoot!
