Texas Yoda and Country Music legend Willie Nelson’s debut novel “A Tale Out Of Luck” (Center Street Books) should not to be confused with Willie’s album “A Tale Out of Luck” which features the excellent song “Home Motel.” The book is the story of Retired Texas Ranger Captain Hank Tomlinson who must attempt to keep his sons safe from vengeful Comanche warriors while trying to catch a murderer who he knows will soon strike again. The name of the book and the album are a play off the name of Luck Texas which is an old western town built in 1986 on Willie Nelson’s ranch for the filming of “Red Headed Stranger.

One Reply to “Marty Stuart To Debut “The Marty Stuart Show” on RFD-TV in November”
i watched show Nov 1, 08. enjoyed very much. i would like to request Connie Smith to sing “run away little tear”. she has had so many hits but i can’t find this song in stores. Connie has been my favorite female singer since she started with “once a day”. Marty is a qreat musican and writer and i enjoy his songs. Please try to get Ray Price for the show.
