Album Notes

Bill Crowder, lead vocal and songwriter for the 60\'s cult favorite Sugar Cube Blues Band, is back with a new release. After the original band broke up in the late 60\'s, Crowder quit performing, but continued to write great songs. His music is still being performed and recorded by others as recently as 2008. Bill Crowder, AKA Country Boy Rolling Stone, has gathered material that has been requested for a long time and compiled a great CD. Sugar Cube Blues Band followers will find it interesting that some of the original band members are still recording with Country Boy.

The world might have completely passed Country Boy Rolling Stone by, except for the the fact that his songs would not die. Time simply could not diminish the strength of the material. In the twelve songs presented here in \"Hitchhiking From Memphis To Mars\", you will see what we mean.

Country Boy\'s influences are Elvis, Johnny, Waylon, Willie, Kris and Dylan. This combination of influences has produced lyrically strong emotional material not heard since the outlaw years. From the iconization of the \"Guardian Angel of the Honky Tonk Life\" to the soul searching portrait of the countless singers and pickers who have played, and are still playing the country palaces and third street bars that make up the scenic skyline of the endless road in his \"Country Boy Rolling Stone\", to the good time rock and roll rendition of the title cut \"Hitchhiking From Memphis To Mars\", to all in between, we think you will find something you love here. This is music from the heart and soul, music to just kick back, close your eyes and enjoy listening to.

Congratulations! Good record. Really great songs. \"Country Boy Rolling Stone\" is a classic. \"Valentine Partner\" brought a tear to my eye. I still think that\'s a hit.
Thanks for the CD. Real Good work.

Hi, Billy and Budley, I was thrilled to get the word from "home" about the success of your album. When I listened to Billy singing, I was remined of "the red-headed stranger". Loved it! And Budely, great job of producing. For the next album cover, would you browse my website & see if any of my art work would be something you could use? It would be nice if we could work together. Congratulations & continued success from a former classmate, Judith Lockett Jones www.watercolorsbyjudith.com
