According to the search function, Blaze Foley has only been mentioned three times in MB's history, so you may have overlooked him, as I had until yesterday when I came across the excellent Clay Pigeons song. Most of his material is sad and gentle, with a vein of humour running through it, and I suspect that's how the guy was himself. Anyway, Clay Pigeons is from
Live at the Austin Outhouse (1999) - so far my fave out of his handful of albums, although
The Dawg Years, with its curious recording history, comes a close second.
