The James McMurtry and Jon Dee Graham gig at the Luminaire last night was every bit as good as I had hoped it would be. Two very good songwriters backed by a very good bar band (which is meant as a compliment) + Ian McLagan on keyboards + a good venue + no mark-up on the beer = excellent night. As Mr F said, it is too early to talk about gig of the year but the others will have to go some to top it.
As a special treat, here from his 2003 live album is James McMurtry with "Choctaw Bingo", which was one of the many highlights of last night's show:
