I remember around 1981 or so, when Willy and Waylon did Pancho and Lefty, my Dad schooled me about Townes Van Zandt. The Old Man's been gone a while, and while he was career Navy, Vietnam vet, and one of the hardest working men I've ever met, I drifted into drugs and crime. I've been clean for a while now, and every day I gain a deeper appreciation for everything he taught me about music. For a high school dropout that fled the reservation for the Navy at 17 in 1955, that man knew more about American music than some Berkeley (Boston music college) professors I've met. I'll be playing my acoustic for him and Mom Sunday, where they rest near the pond where I grew up. This will definitely be on the playlist.

There is a story in which they needed to get the release for this from Mick and Keith before it could be used in The Big Lebowski. The management who had the rights were playing hardball and the Coen brothers flew the guy they were negotiating with to LA for a private screening. They weren't getting any indication from the guy that he would give the release until it came to the scene in the cab where the Dude demands that the driver shut off the Eagles song that was on the radio. Once he said "I hate the F******g Eagles", the guy jumps up and says "Wonderful, you can have the song at no cost!" Nothing like mutual hatred of the Eagles to bring us all together.

Reminds me of the Pat Garret and Billy the Kid film opening and closing themes by bob Dylan, can anyone else hear it? Well they say pat garret has your number, so rest with one eye open when you slumber, cuse every sound just may be the sound of thunder, thunder from the barrel of his gun,

I don't know. I love Townes, but I always found his take on this Stones classic to be dull and devoid of something. It's not that great.

100% . UK has some good folk writers too. I say that as a proud Texan, Townes is the very best , Gordon Lightfoot was amazing too. Everyone Townes friends were amazing songwriters . Guy. Blaze, Steve , Kris . It's like everyone that man touched were blessed. I'm the only person I know that is under 40 (barely) that got to meet him. I was sadly only 7 years old but my cousin introduced me to him and told.me he was the best songwriter to ever live and this is a important man.

But this is a cover of a rolling stones song. It was written by englishmen, not texans.

Anyone knows who is singing harmony?

I believe it's Jimmy Gray, who was also part of Waylon Jennings' band The Waylors. He's credited with vocals on this album.

Andrew L.Oldham: "De haber sabido que The Rolling Stones terminaría siendo una banda de músicos burgueses y pseudoaristócratas no los hubiera yo apoyado". Sácatelas mano. Pero la rola es muy buena, más allá de juicios sobre la banda.
