Sounds Like: Take my influences, add my experiences, put in a generous helping of my God-given limitations, drink a bottle of Jim Beam, piss the consumed Jim Beam in a glass and pour it in (add vinegar), let it sit in the Fairfield, TX jail overnite, put it in a concrete mixer and turn it for half a century, then pour it in a guitar case. Add a jalapeno pepper, make it salty, serve it with a sweet Honky-Tonk Angel on the side and voila - Murphy!
