Sad to read about Don Walser's passing yesterday.

I've never heard of Don Walser before. Is there a good starting album for beginners?

I think I would probably recommend starting with Texas Top Hand. Walser has a big, old-styled voice. He plays traditional dance hall country music, so if that is what you are interested in, you will likely love it. As a personality, he was amazing because he just seemed to enjoy playing music so much. He started performing relatively late in life, and he appeared to be thrilled just to be up there.

I had the good fortune to see Don about a half dozen times over the years. My favorite time would have to be around Christmas time at the Armadillo bazaar. I'm sure he'll be missed. I didn't even know he had died until I read it hear, and I live in Austin.
