Texan blues man Coyote Jack is super cool. He's a music legend; but can lesser light Charlie entice him to join his band for a gig at The Kicking Mule, on the little island of Jersey?The blues is truth: your soul turned to sound. The author clearly groks this blues philosophy, and as a consequence, 'Coyote Jack and the Bluebirds' is a touching and soulful story. Also, it's obvious that he has lived a similar story, and his repertoire of anecdotes and cute depictions of life in a band is worth a read, even if it weren't attached to a story. The story itself is also good; Charlie is a sympathetic character, and his anticipation reaches a feverish pitch as the plot winds up.
