Oh my friends, he's so much more than that. How many country artists do YOU know that include a cello solo in one of their big hits?
Such a beautiful artist. He needs more attention.

The missus and I were Lyle Lovett stalkers for quite a while.
Most memorable concert was at Carnegie Hall in New York, Lyle Lovett and the Large Band with a guest appearance by the Harlem Gospel Choir helping with “Church.”
Saw him and the Large Band twice - separate years - at the incredible, ancient, Majestic Theater in San Antonio, Texas. The theater alone was worth the trip.
And in Vegas and a bunch in Calgary.
