Before kissing country music and Nashville goodbye and riding off into the sunset in the early 1970's, ASCAP Award winning, single name songwriter and former Monument and Epic recording artist, Hoover, cut one last album at what was known as "Outlaw Headquarters" at 916 19th Ave. South.

Hoover, part of the original country music outlaw movement and a late-night-neon-campfire associate of Kinky Friedman, Waylon Jennings, Billy Joe Shaver and Tompall Glaser, considered this album his best. It was never released, and the master recording was lost after "Outlaw Headquarters" studio ceased to exist.

Decades passed and Hoover and the lost outlaw album were forgotten. One fan who didn't forget was Cathy Flanagan, who, acting swiftly on a telephone tip in the spring of 1997, literally retrieved Hoover's master tapes from a Nashville dumpster moments before they would have been hauled away for good.

Although most of the documentation for the album was not recovered, the following is known: The album was recorded in 1971-1972. Three cuts, "Unwanted Outlaw", "Subjectively Speaking", and "The One You're Thinkin' Of" were not found.
