SKATE MOUNTAIN 
ABE PARTRIDGE/Cotton Fields and Blood For Days: A Baptist minister joins the air force and becomes classic Tom Waits. This cat is the only cat that could cover "Tom Traubert's Blues" and get away with it, but he's got too much of his own material up is sleeve to go manqué on us. You like outsider freek folk? This is your latest dose served right. Killer stuff if you've got what it takes to set up for this.
