A local station here in North Jersey (US) recently has played a lot of Michael Hurley. In fact they had him live at least twice in last 2 years. He's old, he plays wonderful guitar, his tunes are better than catchy. He's famous for imitating a trumpet while he continues his guitar work. But his songs are soooo dragged out. Like you'd love him and want his CDs if the repetition would stop and if he pared it all down. I'd love anyone's input on Michael Hurley.
