They loom large in his legend (The Album Collection playlists): Part 1; Part 2; Part 3; Part 4; Part 5
Active compensatory factors: I have flirted with buying albums by this band over the years and so, couldn't resist when I found one in the vinyl bins at the Little Red Bookshop.

Fran McKendree plays guitar, sings and writes some of the songs. The band is fleshed out with bass, drums, electric guitar and keyboards/violin.
They sound like an American version of Matthews' Southern Comfort (pedal steel is played by guest musician Hank DeVito). Whereas MSC did a great version of a Joni Mitchell song (Woodstock), McKendree Spring have a go at Dylan's The Man In Me and make it theirs. You'll have to take my word for it.
Where do they all belong? I'm keen to track down their earlier albums (Tracks was their fourth).
