JR: I have recorded five on my own. The first two on a small Memphis label run by Billy Gibson, called North Magnolia Records. One was self-titled, the other was called Down at the Juke .

Those are unavailable and out-of-print for the most part. I’m pretty happy with that situation for obvious audible reasons. However, there is some songwriting and tolerable playing on both of those, but mainly I hate the vocals.
