Taking a page from +Jack Shear 's playbook, I've created a soundtrack for Tayxis. You may think you know Tayxin music, but you don't. Is there some country in here? Sure, but this ain't no Kenny Chesney, Garth Brooks poppy bullshit. This music is one part rotgut, two parts rattlesnake venom. It's, in the words of Waylon Jennings, lonesome, on'ry and mean. So break out your whiskey, kick off your boots, roll yourself a cigarillo and enjoy.
Here is the soundtrack.
Also, because it's on 8tracks, and they're weird about playlists, I'm posting it here. I'm also providing links to their websites, in case you're interested in hearing more.
