The Western world of Wes McGhee is a musical melting pot of southern American culture; rock and roll, blues,Tejano, honky tonk, Tex Mex, and hard country. Funny thing is, this musical Texan never set foot in the States untilhe was an adult. In fact, he still calls his native England home. But the music of British singer/songwriter WesMcGhee is as Texan as it gets. He understands Texas, and it has loved him right back since he began recording therein the late seventies. Just ask some of the Texas artists he's worked with, like Jimmie Dale Gilmore or Butch Hancock.This career retrospective pulls his best tracks together, and it's as sweeping a catalogue as the West Texas Plains,so it is with great Texas pride that SteadyBoy Records brings you this three-disc set (at a single CD price).
