    This is a record Guy Clark can surely be proud to have as a tribute.

    Given this combination of tangled travails and expressive voices, it's hard to imagine any way these songs might be better served.

    Clark's worthy of the adulation, of course, but only a handful of cuts beg for more than that initial spin, and quite a few suck the life out of the song.
