I probably have at least one album by more than half of those guys! Let's see..... I think I'm only missing Steve Young, Mickey Newbury (though I've got stuff I know with his songs on it), Lee Clayton and Tompall Glaser.
That's a great list.
I'm a big fan of Hoyt Axton. Sad to say I never got to see him live. Actually I haven't seen any of those folks live but the majority are still with us. I know Gary Stewart isn't but the rest...
Gary was probably the best honky tonk singer there was. Word is he was completely unpredictable so if you went to a show he might not show, he might show drunk beyond being capable of performing or he might show up and give you the best live show you;ve ever seen.
