Sexton was a guitar wunderkind from Austin who was 16 when this came out. A poster of the album cover is seen in Ferris Bueller’s bedroom, and John Hughes used “Beat’s So Lonely” in Some Kind of Wonderful.
Sexton would go on to play in Bob Dylan’s band (including on some recordings) and produce other artists. (He’s also on Lucinda Williams’ “Lake Charles”).
My copy—via Waterloo Records in Austin TX—is a Gloversville MCA pressing from the mid-eighties, with the original inner and the greyscale MCA labels.
