Bruce Hampton and a whole lot more.Check out Oteil's new Album 'Water In The Desert' on iTunes and anywhere you stream or download music. If you like what you hear please, leave us a review on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, or Google Play so more of us can find out about the show and this thing grows into a juggernaut of love, and laughs, and exploration of this long strange trip we call lifeNo Simple Road needs your help!
