Jimmie Dale Gilmore, Joe Ely and Butch in Hollywood at the Troubadour as the FLATLANDERS...

Many people I know in Austin, Texas regard Butch Hancock as on of the top singer/songwriters that has
come to town to make some music in the alleys of Austin.  "Country music's ballad tradition is fused with the
visionary poetry of contemporary folk music by Butch Hancock. In addition to being featured on his solo albums,
Hancock's songs have been covered by the Texas Tornadoes ("She Never Spoke Spanish to Me"), Emmylou
Harris ("If You Were a Bluebird") and his former bandmates in the short-lived but influential Flatlanders, Joe Ely
and Jimmie Dale Gilmore."  CDNow Bio

A native of Lubbock, Texas, Hancock spent hours listening to the music played by border radio stations. As a
youngster, he frequented square dancing events and fiddle contests. He began writing songs while driving his
father's tractor on the family farm.
