About this album
Hobos, Heroes And Street Corner Clowns is a sharp, rootsy Southern album that brings Don Nix’s blues-rock writing into easy contact with funk and soul. Released in 1973, it reflects the loose, hard-edged studio blend that made Nix such a valued figure in American roots music, both as a songwriter and performer. The record moves between gritty bar-band drive, gospel-tinged feeling and punchy rhythm work, with songs like Black Cat Moan and The Train Don’t Stop Here No More giving the album much of its bite. It stands as one of Nix’s most distinctive statements, joining storytelling and groove with real regional character.
