Alejandro Escovedo mentioned the loss of a friend and musician Stephen Bruton the last time I saw him play in Houston. I knew the name but couldn’t really place it, much to my embarrassment now. I was reminded of it when I heard it again in Jeff Bridges Oscar acceptance speech. Bruton was responsible, with T-Bone Burnett, for much of the music on Crazy Heart. Allow me to humbly suggest, despite my poor example, that you check out the clips I found below and then go out and buy ever album he ever made or played on.
