Charlie Sexton-Wishing Tree-Dallas May 1995

Austin Texas-based musician Charlie Sexton’s career arc resembles more an electrocardiogram, with stops as a Bob Dylan protege, solo in the mid-’80s, then the probably too-good-to-last Arcangels with Double Trouble’s Chris Layton, Tommy Shannon, plus Eric Clapton acolyte Doyle Bramhall II. But Charlie Sexton can write and sing with just the most basic of accompaniment, as we fortunately found out at the Dallas Oak Lawn Mattito’s restaurant, patio singing “Wishing Tree” back in May 1995 live on my Q102 Dallas/Ft. Worth afternoon radio Friday broadcast. Pass the Bob Armstrong dip!- Redbeard
