Chris Whitley-“Living With the Law”- Dallas 7-91

Although Chris Whitley‘s birth certificate listed Houston Texas as his birthplace, by the time the eclectic modern bluesman’s untimely death in  2005 at age 45, Chris had lived all over the world. Sensing a rare authenticity and smoldering passion upon the release of his major label debut Living With the Law  in Summer 1991, we gratefully welcomed him as a prodigal Texan out on the lawn under a tent when Whitley performed the title song, for free, for Q102 Blood Drive donors that evening.- Redbeard
