Description
The co-author of Stevie Ray Vaughan's biggest hit recruits an all-star roster of Austinites, including Bob Dylan sidemen Charlie Sexton and Denny Freeman and Eagles keyboardist Mike Thompson, for his latest solo effort.
Austin-based singer-songwriter Bill Carter's list of bona fides is so long, it's hard to decide which credits to note first. We could start with his first big songwriting score, "Why Get Up?," heard on the Fabulous Thunderbirds' breakout album, Tuff Enuff . Then there's "Crossfire," the No. 1 hit he co-wrote for Stevie Ray Vaughan along with his wife Ruth and Double Trouble. Or there's "Anything Made of Paper," penned for the West Memphis 3's Damien Echols, which Carter recorded with pal Johnny Depp and performed on the Late Show With David Letterman . Carter's songs have been covered by scores of major artists, from John Mayall and Ruth Brown to Robert Palmer and Waylon Jennings; among his accolades is a BMI Million Air award.
