Wagon rolls on into half knots

"Wagon is Ben Davis, Chris E. Peterson, Danny Kathriner, LEn Small, and for a few years also Steve Rauner. Ben did the legwork to get Lloyd Maines on board to produce (and sing a little and add his golden touches on pedal steel) this CD "No Kinder Room," our second recording (1996). We recorded the tracks live, all in different rooms of Cedar Creek Studios, in Austin, TX, and when we did nail a recording, Lloyd would nod his head and let us know, "that was in the pocket, boys."
The other Wagon CDs are "Soon" (1993), "Anniversary" (1998), and "Beauty Angel Queen" (1999). We toured in support of our recordings, but ultimately, other career pursuits and budding families resulted in hitching the Wagon indefinitely...
...but Danny and Chris have continued on in a project known as "Half Knots," and their first self-titled CD (2005) can also be found on Amazon. We have presently completed the tracks for the 2nd Half Knots CD - should be released in early 2007."
Man, I love this album
