Red Dirt America ep8 - The Flatlanders

Texas Legends Joe Ely, Butch Hancock, & Jimmie Dale Gilmore first got together as the Flatlanders in 1972, they were together for a year, put out one album and then...their individual careers took off and it was 20 years before there was another Flatlanders album! Fast Forward to 2021 and they've just released their first album in 12 years, Treasure of Love. I talk with all three about the new album, their storied careers and the surprising influence they all have in common.
