Honeysuckle Dog

Honeysuckle Dog is an album by Chris Smither originally recorded in 1973 for United Artists Records but released in 2005. The album was not released until 2005 because the record label was purchased by Transamerica, which culled over half the UA roster of artists (including Smither) shortly before putting the label out of business altogether. Despite being dropped from the record label, Smither continued to tour, becoming a fixture in the New England folk clubs.[1]
