Since I have been informed that this morning’s post was “lame,” and since I also agree, how about something good?
The friend of mine that I mentioned in the last post is Charlie Hardin (aka Charlie Murphey). We both hail from Mississippi. We’ve actually known each other for quite a long time, since senior year of high school. He’s a great musician and songwriter. I recorded and jammed with him many times when I lived in Tennessee. A few weeks ago he released an EP called “Hollywood Be Thy Name.” (Clever, right?) Last week I got my hands on a copy. (Ironically his dad and I work for the same company.) Anyway, it’s wonderful. The songs are great, the production is killer, and he had some awesome Nashville musicians play on the record.
So here’s my little Charlie Hardin shout-out. If you like Mississippians and good music (and who wouldn’t?), check him out:

One song in on Charlie’s stuff and I like it… quite a bit. When do we get to hear Joe Gilder with this type of production?

Close your eyes and imagine REALLY hard. I’m actually working on one tune that’s got some cool production on it. All in due time.
