Craftsman is an album by American singer-songwriter Guy Clark, released in 1995. It is a 30-song double-CD collection that includes all of Clark's late-1970s and 1980s recordings for Warner Bros. Guy Clark, The South Coast of Texas, and Better Days. The album was reviewed as being a collection of "some of Clark's finest work", containing "tales of drifters, smuggles, old-fiddle players, wild-eyed girls in cowboy bars, life on the south coast of Texas, waitresses in cheap hotels, the joys of homegrown tomatoes, carpenters and lots of finely crafted, highly original love songs".[2]
