For more than forty years; Guy Clark wrote and recorded unforgettable songs. His lyrics and melodies paint indelible portraits of the people; places; and experiences that shaped him. He has served as model; mentor; supporter; and friend to at least two generations of the worldrsquo;s most talented and influential singer-songwriters. In songs like ldquo;Desperados Waiting for a Train;rdquo; L.A. Freeway;rdquo; ldquo;She Ainrsquo;t Going Nowhere;rdquo; and ldquo;Texas 1947;rdquo; Clarkrsquo;s poetic mastery has given voice to a vision of life; love; and trouble that has resonated not only with fans of Americana music; but also with the prominent artistsmdash;including Johnny Cash; Ricky Skaggs; Jerry Jeff Walker; and othersmdash;who have recorded and performed Clarkrsquo;s music. Now; in Without Getting Killed or Caught: The Life and Music of Guy Clark; writer; producer; and music industry insider Tamara Saviano chronicles the story of this legendary artist from her unique vantage point as his former publicist and producer of the Grammy-nominated album This Onersquo;s for Him: A Tribute to Guy Clark. Part memoir; part biography; Savianorsquo;s skillfully constructed narrative weaves together the extraordinary songs; larger-than-life characters; previously untold stories; and riveting emotions that make up the life of this modern-day poet and troubadour.
