Description


The Oxford American's first ever vinyl LP, a Texas Love Letter compilation. Conceived and composed by OA music editor Rick Clark with help from, Texas songwriting legend Ray Wylie Hubbard, the LP was available as a limited-edition gift for a donor premium of $240.00. 

This album is limited to 400 hand numbered copies. 

Side A

1. “House of Blue Lights” by Ella Mae Morse
2. “Dirty Work At The Crossroads” by Clarence “Gatemouth” Brown
3. “Grand Candy Young Sweet” by Fever Tree
4. “Me And My Destiny” by Doug Sahm
5. “Corazon Viajero” by Tish Hinojosa
6. “Harm’s Swift Way” (Demo) by Townes Van Zandt

Side B

1. “Amarillo Highway” by Terry Allen
2. “Let Her Dance” by Bobby Fuller Four
3. “The Messenger” by Ray Wylie Hubbard
4. “Satin Sheets” by Willis Alan Ramsey
5. “Gospel” by Charlie Sexton


In eleven songs, the Oxford American’s Texas Love Letter LP showcases the high-caliber songcraft of the state of Texas- some of which have never been available in any form. Most notably is the debut Townes Van Zandt’s final recording, “Harm’s Swift Way.” The song has been covered by Robert Plant and a few others over the years, but the original demo version has never been officially released until now. 

Other highlights: A song from Willis Alan Ramsey’s long out-of-print self-titled 1972 album, a Texas cult classic; a new stripped-down arrangement of “Gospel,” recorded live by Charlie Sexton in October 2014, exclusively for this album; and, on the back sleeve of the LP, a love letter to Texas songwriting penned by our friend Ray Wylie Hubbard.
