Black Eyed Man by Cowboy Junkies
Black Eyed Man is an album by Cowboy Junkies, released in 1992. 1 song from it has charted on rock radio countdowns, with 3 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “Murder Tonight In The Trailer Park”, on 3 lists with a best position of #404.
Black Eyed Man, Cowboy Junkies' fourth studio album, came out on RCA in 1992, and it finds the Toronto band still edging away from the spare, hushed country blues of The Trinity Session toward something closer to mainstream country rock. The lineup hadn't budged since the start: Margo Timmins singing, her brothers Michael on guitar and Peter on drums, and Alan Anton on bass, with Michael writing the songs and multi-instrumentalist Jeff Bird once again sitting in.
The slow burn is still there, and so is Margo's cool, unhurried voice, but the arrangements fill out and the band leans into gospel and rock colors. "Murder Tonight in the Trailer Park" is the one that found its way onto the countdowns.
