David Frizzell

An odd coincidence -- I'd never heard of this guy until last night. I'm just received answers back from an email interview I'm doing w/ David Berman, and he namechecked Frizzell for his song "I’m Gonna Hire A Wino To Decorate Our Home" (a country lyric he admired.) So anyway. Look for the interview on Pitchfork in the next few weeks.

"I'm Gonna Hire A Wino..." is great, as is the only other DF song I know, "You're the Reason God Made Oklahoma", a duet with Shelley West. Keep meaning to buy more of his records but never quite see them cheaply enough.

Lefty's (much) younger brother, obv.
