New West Records - The Black Dog And The Wandering Boy CD

Experience the eleventh studio album from James McMurtry, titled "The Black Dog & The Wandering Boy." Released by New West Records, this collection features a series of rough-hewn story-songs that reflect deep personal history and musical craftsmanship. The inspiration for this project stems from a discovery made after the passing of McMurtry's father in 2021. While going through personal effects, he found a pencil sketch of himself as a child, believed to be the work of Ken Kesey from the 1960s. This connection to the Merry Pranksters and his family's history serves as a backdrop for the songwriting on this record. This album offers listeners a chance to hear McMurtry at his most authentic. It is a must-have for fans of rock and folk-influenced storytelling who appreciate music with a strong sense of place and personal narrative.
