Joe Ely, Reverb. By now anyone with a love of American music, especially of the Texas variety that howls like the wind and cannot seem to ever slow down, knows and likely loves Joe Ely. Hes been recording since his early days in the Flatlanders, and made a hand- ful of albums that stand next to anyones. Now hes written a novel, and why shouldnt he? Books are like albums without music, in a way, and for someone with an imagination bigger than Lubbock, it makes sense to expand onto the printed page. Centered around 1967s Summer of Love in his West Texas hometown, Ely heads for the brave new world of imagination and mayhem, and mixes things up like you knew he could. He puts the twang into the turmoil so by the end of this thrilling book its happily clear that any- thing goes. Be ready. — Bill Bentley
