IMHO Newbury was a brilliant songwriter and an excellent singer. I really enjoy all his stuff. San Francisco Mabel Joy and She Even Woke Me Up To Say Goodbye are particular favorites.

Hello friends,
I cannot recall if I have in the recent past recommended anything by this singer/songwriter/artist. Most might know him by American Trilogy. Think he was way better than that. A true unrecognized genius artist. Just give a listen to San Francisco Mabel Joy, recorded with him, his guitar, and a violin. Marie Rhimes playing violin. When I lived in Nashville he was held in such high regard, but I did not see it at the time. Now, I do.
