“What a sumptuous feast of a book this is. Coffee table sized, lavishly illustrated, and utterly engaging, it oozes quality from the standard of the writing to the beautiful quality of paper. If you’re a Texan music fan, this is a must-have book; heck, if you’re any sort of music fan, you’ll love it.” - Gary W. Burnett, author of The Gospel According to the Blues
“Corcoran has built his own legacy as an autonomous historiographer of Texas music and its influence on popular culture. Drawing from his lifetime of professional writing experience and his obvious passion for music and research, Ghost Notes may well be his crowning achievement to date.” - Roger Wood, author of Down In Houston.

I already have a copy of All Over the Map and really enjoyed it. The chapter on Cindy Walker is worth the price of admission!
