Bob Carpenter, Bruce Robinson and Bobby Earl Smith are not names to be found back in everybody's record collection.


Bob Carpenter - Silent Passage (1975)
recorded between 1971-1974

Canadian singer-songwriter, Bob Carpenter's first and only album, produced by Brian Ahern and recorded between 1971 and 1974 buy not released until 1984 because of contractual problems. Anne Murray and Emmylou Harris supply Background vocals. It's a decent country rock album.

Allmusic.com mentions a "Bob Carpenter" but it's unclear if this is the same guy as of this album.


Bobby Earl Smith - Turn Row Blues (2005)
recorded in February and April of 2003





















I don't know more about Smith then what his website mentions but considering James Burton playing on the album, you should have an idea about the style (country) and the quality...

Bruce Robison - Eleven Stories (2006)



















For all you people who love the Texas singer songwriters please pay attention! Bruce Robison is one of the lesser know names. Like always it goes like this: "unknown makes unwanted" but it is not always "not good" too. Bruce Robison is such a folk artist. I have only this album of him and it's a very pleasant album. Robison has released 6 albums according to Allmusic.com
