Collection containing 22 tracks (19 previously unissued) from the Americana music pioneers. Packaging includes liner notes from renowned journalist and producer Bill Bentley. Formed in Spartanburg, SC around 1970, Uncle Walt's Band - David Ball, Deschamps Hood, and Walter Hyatt - established themselves in the area before relocating to Nashville (garnering a following a recording/publishing deal with Buzz Cason), and eventually Austin (per the invite of Willis Alan Ramsey who was anxious to record them.) The band played steadily around Austin in clubs including Castle Creek, Saxon Pub, and Armadillo World Headquarters-where live albums from New Riders Of The Purple Sage, Waylon Jennings, Frank Zappa/Captain Beefheart, Commander Cody, and more were recorded. Thought You'd Never Ask: The Complete 1975 Armadillo Records Recordings also features new liner notes from renowned journalist and producer Bill Bentley. While the Armadillo/WB deal never materialized, it's genesis helped create some of finest music these Americana Pioneers ever recorded. So, step back in time and hear David, Champ, and Walter play and sing their hearts out. There's never been another trio like Uncle Walt's Band. Take a listen, and you'll agree.
