Why this music does not get played on the majority of radio stations is no mystery to me. It shows great talent, is tuneful, one can actually understand the lyrics, and it addresses social issues. Not the typical stuff that is played these days on the airwaves of popular music. I feel fortunate that the rest of the world has not discovered what Hornsby fans already know. This allows us to enjoy his music live in small intimate theaters where the joy and passion of his music is best experienced. He is a consummate musician who can play virtually any style with ease and continues to challenge himself and the musicians that he surrounds himself with. "Spirit Trail" is yet another classic in the Bruce Hornsby canon. Just like a fine wine, he continues to get better.
