Kinky Friedman
This posting another past due to honour and highlight the music of Texas' original Jewboy "Kinky Friedman". Kinky has quite a history here in Texas although he was born in Chicago, but has became a Texas love for many with his satire as a lyricist in particular, and he is just the kind of piece that I love to throw in at a familia barbeque or similar, or just over a few drinx at a bar ... also some really nice honky tonk style piano work get's thrown into his music as well, which I am a big fan of, and love Elton John's "Honky Cat" as example. Kinky has also gained some notoriety and controversy here in the Lone Star State in political circles at the same time (he is a Democrat), he is also a writer amongst other thing's and just one busy feller, so I'll let the Wikipedia link to his name cover most of that, he was also a long time favourite of my friend Joe Christ, who also met Kinky as well ... but love ya Kinky! I wanted to dedicate this posting as well to Thora & her sister Millie, Thora is my grandma who died in the 1960's, but knowing grandma and her lively style and humour ... would have loved Kinky! This will also serve as Part 20 of the "Taste of Texas" series, and be included in the "RCJ Music/ Art's Honour Roll Society" ... Enjoy!
