i am the biggest jerry jeff fan you'll ever meet,.......
mom says the first song i ever learned was his 'sangria wine', at around two

if you dig jerry jeff you should also check out gary p nunn,...who was once one of the 'gonzos' and penned his hit 'london homesick blues'
also, many of jerry jeffs hits were covers of guy clark tunes,...so if you've not given him a listen, i'd recomend that as well

his son django is also big on the texas scene down here,......his 'texas on my mind' was a big hit for pat green and cory morrow a few years back,.....also two talents to check out

pat green, pre 'wave on wave' days were really a hay day for texas music

others you might like

mike mcclure
scott evans
the kyle hunt band
reckless kelly
