  • Description

    New Release from Wes McGhee 3CD set 'Bead Mountain Bad Roads and Borders' is a career retrospective bringing together 46 tracks from a 30 year recording career. The double CD 'Bead Mountain Bad Roads and Borders' collects what have become known as 'The Texas Tracks' telling Wes' story from his meeting with Texan writer and Indian activist Roxy Gordon in the late seventies up to Roxys passing in 2000 and all the heartbreaking songs and tequila fueled honky-tonkin' along the way. AND... theres a full bonus CD 'Scars Bars and Red Guitars'. 16 songs that Wes has played live over the years, some for a few years, some maybe just once or twice, the whole set is sequenced like a live show, beginning with the well road wornl opener' 'Endless Road' and ending with his popular closer 'Moon On The Brazos'. All re-mastered, sometimes remixed, and occasionally re-recorded this three CD set is the very best of guitarist/songwriter Wes McGhee and his great band.
