Sad news.
I got to see Tony Joe play in Nashville a few years ago. He was a powerful presence.
The Train I'm On is about as good as a record gets.

I wasn't familiar with this album. It's got a bunch of the Swampers on it. This is pretty nice. I might strip a track or two from this song if it were mine, but I mostly like this dense, lush sound:
