I named my daughter after him. Townesly! The only one I've ever known, she's a rare breed just like the guy she's named after. Been listening to him for a couple decades and I still get chills. To all my turn styled and junk piled friends, loving the comments.
-
None better. We are all richer because he lived, created and performed.
Bless you Townes. RIP -
Imagine there will be people in this world that might not hear this album! I wish they could. Love from Ireland 🥃
-
An amazing writer, singer, guitarist and truly a mystical soul. I have the pleasure of knowing him as a friend.
-
The greatest songwriter to ever live. His grocery lists would have gone #1 in a fair world that valued music over mass produced garbage.
-
Got his first album for 49 cents in a bargain bin in Jackson, MS c. 1970...
-
There has never been a musician like him
-
Townes Van Zandt and Frankie Miller are the only singer-writers to make me cry on first hearing.
-
Thank you my friend 🧡
-
His guitar playing was story telling in itself, but his lyrics were the real deal. Such a magical storyteller, RIP
-
This is a throwback to legends like Campbell, Cash, Jennings, Robbins, etc. And then there's Townes, he is a legend right there among them. Just consistent hit after hit after hit of great songs. He is quite an amazing singer, songwriter and musician. I really like his fingerstyle playing especially.
-
I’m so grateful that Emmylou Harris recorded Pancho and Lefty on her 1976 album Luxury Liner, that is how I came to love the talented songwriter Townes Van Zandt. I have been immersing myself in Townes music for years and years & my oldest son got tickets for all of us (me, husband, it’s his birthday, son & girlfriend) to go to a Townes tribute concert this weekend, so excited 👏❤️🥰

One more great that I never got to see.
-
A bright star in the heavens.🌺🌹
-
I'm just getting into this man's music and I'm wondering why I hadn't until now. One
of the greatest song writers of all time. -
Thanks for taking the time to put this album online. Im really enjoying it.

I was introduced to Townes Van Zandt a year ago because someone in my family was playing him a lot. I always stopped what I was going to listen and I still do. Some of his songs sure have a way of making me cry yet I go back for more. Pancho and Lefty was the first song of his I heard and it really left a permanent mark on my music taste.
-
One of the best poetic songwriters ever!
-
He existed on the great realm of future
-
I see a a common denominator between Townes and Songwriter Phil Ochs who died in 1976 from self asphyxiation after suffering from depression from government oppression
