He is a country singer. He once had OK talent, and produced a hit song that is quite qood. I don't know the name of the song, but it start: "Hey pretty baby are you ready for me, I'm your boo right daddy down from tennesee". Anyway, he turned into a drunken, homeless loser for at least 10 years or so, and has since ressurrected himself out of the free press that he gets for singing anti-american songs.

gonna take you back with me to a guitar town"
