Printed: 40 pages, 6" x 9", perfect binding, black and white interior ink Description:Lyrics-as-verse of the quixotic troubador. Jamie Dyer, singer-songwriter and visionary, prophet of the dusty mainstreet and disused tobacco-barn, seer a-far and speaker a-near, broke bad on Cville Downtown in the early 1990s with a small combo that was soon to become legend and legion in this tawdry burg: The Hogwaller Ramblers. Here, reprinted from the early edition, lyrics to a few of his songs, presented in this slim volume as the clever and powerful verse they are--words to make Jim Morrison blench, to send Dylan-Cohen-Brel scampering for cover. A friend of the Press and a prime-mover in the creation of our bohemian downtown subculture... Jamie at MySpaceJamie DyerListed in: |

Mr. Dyer has obviously looked at far too much Thomas Hart Benton and read too much O. Henry but I do admire the homage that he gives to Bukowfsky (or whatever that guy's name was) in his songs. Old World and New World collide to give rise to a world called "Holy Baloney! Who Stole My Kultur?"
If you miss this book, you can probably catch it next time around and it'll be like finding an old watch that still works.
