"I first heard about Robert Earl Keen because Lyle Lovett would play some of his songs and refer to him in concert. Then I saw REK open for LL at a show playing a solo acoustic set. Good stuff, very funny.

Then I saw REK and his full band live at the Bluegrass Festival in SF in 2004 and wow, they really jam! He has a very tight, talented band, and this DVD showcases it very well. The only shame is that it's so short. "Amarillo Highway" is a big highlight, and of course "The Road Goes on Forever," which is his signature song. If you want an introduction to REK, this would be a great place to start."
