Murry Hammond


Murry Hammond is the bassist of the Old '97s. Last year he produced a solo album, I Don't Know Where I'm Going But I'm on My Way, an attractive mix of country gospel and train songs (and I love train songs... I feel a post coming on); it's pretty unique, works as a whole and I love it. Try these, especially the first which is a kind of personal hymn which and knocked me out when I first heard it:

mp3 Murry Hammond: I Believe, I Believe
mp3 Murry Hammond: Next Time Take the Train

Here's one of his songs from the last album by the Old '97s, Blame it on the Gravity. Try this:

mp3 Old '97s: Color of the Lonely Heart is Blue

Download drm-free here, can't find the cd in the UK, Amazon US have it as do iTunes.
