Ell I Be
Did anyone know that Texas singer/songwriter James McMurtry is Larry McMurtry's son? Check this bio out:
http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=11:r1u06j5h71u0~T1
Of course, Larry McMurtry is the Pulitzer Prize winning novelist who wrote Lonesome Dove and screenwriter of Terms of Endearment and currently nominated for screenwriting Brokeback Mountain. I'm quickly becoming a huge fan of James McMurtry. Ornitholoco knows what I'm talking about. He's a hell of a guitar player too. This bio says his English professor mom taught him how to play. This is cool as shit.
Also, I discovered this by listening to http://pandora.com which is a pretty slick little app. Btw, it linked Belle and Sebastian to James McMurtry, which I think is pretty cool.
