that was written by an

Austin legend,

Mr.

Hancock.

Everybody knows

Butch out there.

He wrote a lot of songs for

Joe

and a bunch of our friends and can't

write so many tunes.

Man, it's ridiculous how many songs.

the great story about

Austin,

you know, we live a real far out life

down here.

It's a pity he had this thing on

the tape for a long time.

know, followed me around,

just listen to this, listen to that.

So finally in

New

York, we finally got to record it.

I finally heard it played

with his organ.

don't know, here's what came out of it.

A thing called, I

Keep

Wishing

For

You.

One of

Butch's best.
