i just saw John Fullbright in La Veta, Colorado on his way back home from a tour. I realized after watching him live that I'd seen him in this clip. He is so talented on keyboards, vocally, and with the guitar and harmonica. He did a tribute to Townes. What an amazingly talented musician!!

This was my favorite song on my first Townes LP (they were hard to get where I lived in Germany, it's a small wonder I even knew about Townes back then) This version is incredible.

Talented band. Robert Earl's gravelly voice plus John Fullbright. What a tour party.

John Fullbright's 15 second harp solo gives me chills every single time. A wonderful and timeless song right there.

Poetry. Townes was a genius. No singer has made me say "wow" so many times after actually listening to the words.

I have been all over the southwest, often times checking out western wear stores. In my opinion the best western store is in Raton. Not an advertisement not even telling you the name
