Album Notes & Community Reviews
Visual artist Terry Allen recorded this sprawling, fiercely independent double album in his Texas hometown, delivering an absolute masterpiece of progressive outlaw country. 'Lubbock (On Everything)' is a wonderfully humorous, deeply satirical, and highly rebellious collection of sharply melodic singer-songwriter narratives examining art, hypocrisy, and Southwestern hedonism.
