Guy Clark

Along with his cohort Townes Van Zandt, Guy Clark was one of the most influential singer/songwriters of the Texas troubadour school. Clark began recording in the mid-'70s, and though his albums never broke any sales records, he became known as a songwriter's songwriter. His songs, full of worldly observations in the guise of unpretentiously poetic lyricism, have been covered by an ever-widening group of singers, including Lyle Lovett, Johnny Cash, Emmylou Harris, and Jerry Jeff Walker. ~ Rovi Staff
