But when a strange new house band takes the stage, the hippies roll in and the good ole boys find their way back. Told in a trio of voices-a guitarist chasing what may be his last shot at success; a bar owner trying to see a future in her lifeless marriage; and a young kid from East Texas desperate for kinship, or at least something to take the damn edge off-Walk Softly on This Heart of Mine delivers a riotous love song to an enigmatic city.
