James McMurtry sings "Vaquero".

James McMurtry performs his song, "Vaquero" in The Wittliff's main gallery. The song was inspired by the passing of our co-founder Bill Wittliff and was part of a live radio broadcast on Sun Radio celebrating the opening of our exhibition, "The Songwriters."

Thank you for doing this. I miss Bill. During my initial years here at Texas State UPD, I got to know him and his wife. Amazing people.

Quite befitting for a man of so many talents. Thanks so much for writing this song and sharing it with those of us who truly admired and appreciated his works. I get the Wittliff Library newsletter (how I found this video), will be subscribing here, and still hope to visit the museum before time slips away. Gracias!
