One of Rev. Dan’s “Theme Albums”
by: Rev. DanTommy Womack’s “There, I Said It” has been an anthemic album for me the past year. Womack tours with Todd Snider, one of my other idols/heroes, and I was first introduced to Womack’s music when he played “Nice Day” during Snider’s set at the KPIG Memorial Concert for Laura Ellen Hopper.
From TommyWomack.com:
I have two "hobbies". Firstly, I like to keep read about, and speculate on, the Historical Jesus, the real guy, who he really was, what he really said, etc. reading stuff by J.D. Crossan, A. N. Wilson and John Shelby Spong regarding such. That's because I spent the first twenty-odd years of my life so deep in the Bible belt I didn't even know there was one. Jesus was on every wall of my house and oftentimes twice. I don't live much like that now, but needless to say it leaves its residual notions to be worked through in one's mind. If you'd like my primary messiah pondering, click here [link = no worky-worky]. Otherwise, I'll trouble you no further with it.
Secondly, I boast a reasonably well-honed facility for classic-era New York Mafia Geneology: the Gambinos, the Genoveses, the Bonannos, the Lucheeses and the Columbos…
Obviously my kind of guy…
“There I’ve Said It” is in my personal Pantheon of Awesome Albums.
