Notes * Like anyone else, I became fascinated by Washington Phillip\u2019s story through the music. So, go buy the music. * I backed into the research on this one when I should\u2019ve just started at the source: Michael Corcoran\u2019s amazing excavation of Phillips\u2019 real story, as originally printed in Texas Monthly. There\u2019s a lot of stuff that links out from his site.

Music * Lots of Washington Phillips. * Starts with As Old Roads, by Goldmund. * Don\u2019t Worry, by (Memory Palace favorite) Zoe Keating. * 1979 by Deru.
