Bingham, Ryan
Mescalito
A vagabond spirit permeates these tales of truck stops, tip jars, boxcars, and love left behind, with a slide guitar
punctuating arrangements that range from acoustic folk to classic rock (amid hints of the Rolling Stones, Neil Young's
Crazy Horse, and a young Tom Waits). Yet ultimately, the impressive debut by this Southwestern, raspy-voiced troubadour
is more than the sum of its songs, as the sequencing almost amounts to a narrative of life on the road, with the
world-weary, end-of-the-line "Long Way from Georgia" and "Ever Wonder Why," leading to the renewal of "Sunrise." Former
Black Crowes guitarist Marc Ford produced and provides multi-instrumental support, with Texas honky-tonk legend Terry
Allen offering guest vocals and piano on "Ghost of Travelin' Jones."
