Michael Hurley"When I say Michael Hurley is an original, it's meant both literally and figuratively. The 67-year-old, country-folk oddball is one of the last great ramblin' songwriters, a traveling tunesmith who started out playing the folk scene in the '60s, then stitched his way across the country, living the hobo lifestyle and making albums singular in their silly, stoned, poignant-yet-goofball aesthetic...They don't make them like Hurley any more, it's true, but they never made them like Hurley until he came along." - Anthony Carew
