Walker had little in common with his navel-gazing West Coast contemporaries who were writing about generational alienation. But he didn't really fit with the Texas gang, either - Guy Clarke, Billy Joe Shaver, Townes Van Zandt, et. al - because his songs were decidedly more Southern than Western, rooted deeply in folk and mountain traditions. To make matters worse, Walker's voice was a dead cross between a young Bob Dylan's and John Prine's.
