Elaborate some please. Is he dead? Never heard of him? Why would you replace him?

He wrote a slew of country songs.

Homegrown Tomatoes is one of my favorites.

↑ Funny you mention Gary Clark Jr. I have his live CD sitting right in front of me. My boy got it for me for Christmas. Not great, but pretty darn good!

Guy Clark wrote/sang another one that Jerry Jeff Walker made even more famous. That song reminds me of a wonderful old friend named
Roscoe English who lived 2 or 3 lifetimes in his time here on Earth. The song is 'Desperados Waiting for a Train'. I sure do miss my old friend even today after all these years.

Great Songwriter, Great Singer. His wife, Susan, equally competent. We do a lot of his stuff in our set lists for our performances.

Last time I checked the wait time for a Randall knife was five (5) years. And I'm amazed they don't cost more. Never handled/seen one, but they gotta be good.
And I have been to the Chili Parlor bar and drank a Mad Dog margarita.
