It's only taken Chris Wall ten years for to follow up "Just Another Place" with "El Western Motel" on his Cold Spring Record label. Texas music's most literate songwriter is still exploring his favourite themes of love lost and the trials and tribulations of performing. The album's one page say's it all: Like all of Wall’s previous
work, El Western Motel pulls no punches and dodges no attacks. It’s equal parts
mea culpa, apology, and defiant bluster bolstered by the usual assortment of
concise, insightful lyrics that have been a hallmark of Wall’s career. |
