'Ten Rounds' Album - RCA Records 2001
'Ten Rounds of Jose Cuervo'

This is the title track from Byrd's latest album. It is by far his best
display of talent and maturity. It probably won't get the respect and air
time that his earlier albums did, but neither did his last album 'It's About
Time'. This song is very easy and would be a great beginner song for those
just learning to play. Learn this one and play it at all your gigs, it'll
be just as common as 'Margaritaville' in 20 years, and will probably take
the place of 'Watermelon Crawl' as the crowd's favorite.

in, and after
Ten Rounds of JOSE CUERVO....I lost count and started again, and after
