How I never heard of this artist till 2023 how different imagine my life if I had heard this 20 years ago!

[@michaelr4028]

I'm 60, my kids introduced me to him 10-15 years ago.

If they ever invent time travel I'm heading back to when music was real. Listen to that finger picking, I absolutely love it

[@chioko78]

No need for time travel, there is KZbin...

[@jaymanjay1030]

@@chioko78 I'd love to see it live

[@charliemijatovic8562]

No need for time travel. These artists still exist, you just haven't discovered them yet. Try folkies like Kate Rusby, John Tams and Finbar Furey

This friends is just a special human….. more talent in his pinky toe than my entire family tree. unfortunately the mold was broken when he was created, because musicians can try for decades to duplicate this greatness but it just isn’t possible. Thank you for the upload 👍

[@user-eo9qr3zc2w]

Yup I fancied myself a guitar picker then I heard this man and realized I have a long way to go and a short amount of time. God bless you all!!!

[@angelusnovus2203]

One of the best versions of If I Needed You. What a great musician was townes.

[@tonyahutchinson2647]

His guitar playing was perfect

[@MsFlutterby]

We still miss you Townes !!!

[@mattavery5035]

Best recording I've heard of Townes since Carnegie - better set here - fabulous!

[@nathansteiner4744]

2022, still feeling how townes was feelin

[@charliekeillor226]

This recording is something special

[@jamesreedmusic4224]

Steve Earle said this was Townes at his best. I agree

Pick it and it’ll never heal.

I love you Townes van Zandt and feel your pain. RIP.

[@eweksi]

Wonderful, smooth, charming, great sense of humour, a league of his own.

[@GPsgurl80]

Thank you so much for the upload. I've tried to upload my vinyl copy online here but to no avail. I'm so glad everyone can enjoy this now.

[@jaymanjay1030]

I'd like to listen to your record collection

[@DrEg-jl6ef]

Please try again ;-)

[@russbrownmusic]

Great performance by a songwriter at the top of his game. A tiny bit surprised at the amount of covers and talking blues songs in this performance but hey, his set list his audience

[@TM-li6jr]

It's funny right? I think it shows how irreverent he was as an artist. What would be a milestone for most performers was just another night on the road for him. You can tell by his banter too. "Notice my fingers never leave my hands"... what a punk. What a genius.

[@The_Preacher_LLC]

How is this not on video??????? amazing

[@totnamurvatnoye9993]

ikr

[@carson535]

Amazing! I have not heard some of these. Thank you very much.

[@christiand1247]

Thanks a lot! This is really great and I've been listening to it constantly, but does anyone know anything about the video broadcast of this? There's a snippet in 'Be Here To Love Me ', but I can't find the complete broadcast anywhere. I imagine it would be a great seller if ACL did an official release. 🎸 -Rest Easy Townes- 🎸

[@GPsgurl80]

Honestly I don't we'll ever see an official release from ACL. At least we have this.

[@moe17moe]

I only found "If I needed you " it says on that video it is from September 15, 1975 kzbin.info/www/bejne/sJKzaYF9grGSh6c

오호라 첫트랙이 좋수다

[@billygoat520]

He was a great picker for a while. Some people say demon whiskey took him away too soon, but I think maybe we wouldn't have had Townes without it. I mean if he had been medicated for his depression he may have been a very different person.

Semper Fi, Ira!

Do you have Townes Van Zandt and Clifton Chenier on Austin City Limits in 1976?

[@totnamurvatnoye9993]

no, sorry. ive tried to find it but that episode is really rare i think. ill upload it or let you know when i find that episode.

[@tripp8833]

may I ask why ACL has not released the video yet?? #conspiracy

[@totnamurvatnoye9993]

i have no idea. acl released other musician's performance on their channel but havent uploaded townes' one yet. sad.

[@barbarasearcy6681]

PLEASE do so!

[@wimd4964]

Anyone know of any video of this performance? It seems 'If I needed you' is the only track available

[@roderickmatheson2770]

He was one heck of a guitar picker also

[@johnnyp8979]

THE BALLAD OF IRA HAYES Johnny Cash TOWNES Van Zant (Others), but the better one for me is the rendition from KINKY FRIEDMAN That's my opinion and I'll stick to it. 😁. !

[@GVernon]

Dollar Bill is very similar to Mr. Mudd and Mr. Gold.

Who do I have to talk to to buy that goat?

[@VictorDguez]

Great songwriter and guitar player, really bad singer tho

[@antomanelven]

he's like kenny rogers can sing but cant stay in tune lmao

[@badtimesworse]

Townes referred to himself as a folksinger, first and foremost. Obviously I cannot speak for him but I don't think he was interested in being a polished performance artist. He had bigger fish to fry and demons to battle than to worry about what the critics had to say. Music and songwriting was his therapy. His guitar was his meal ticket. "Fame and fortune just laughed at me and then silence once again."

[@johnnyp8979]

He was his own singer... You like him or listen to others, so enjoy and accept. THAT SIMPLE. ! BTW, I really enjoy KINKY FRIEDMAN, see. ?

[@Piyamedha]

Raw and honest voice. He's a storyteller. I love his voice

[@chastitywhore6141]

You can hear Steve Earle laughing at the start. lol
