Photographs

Who is Robert Ellis? At first glance, he's simply a smiling, longhaired, twenty-two-year old in a hand-stitched western shirt and Dwight Yoakam-tight blue jeans. But there's more to this youthful Houston, Texas native than meets the eye. The young songwriter's second release and debut for New West Records is an impressive and diverse concept album split between five breathtaking folk songs and five soon-to-be country standards. Listening to Photographs, one finds it difficult to pigeonhole Robert Ellis. It's even harder to remember that he's barely just begun.Side A -Friends Like ThoseBambooCemeteryTwo Cans Of PaintWestbound TrainSide B -Comin' HomeWhat's In It For Me?I'll Never Give Up On YouNo FunPhotographs
