You can hear Townes smiling as he's telling these stories.

The unmistakable voice of Larry Monroe. He and Paul Ray used to make Austin Radio worth listening to every Saturday. There is almost no real radio going on anymore and that is online.

good stuff

And now I know the back story. Or at least I think so. Blaze had told my friend and I that he had an album ready to release but the master had been stolen. We asked him about it but he wouldn't elaborate. It's hard to imagine Blaze in a rage - but drugs and alcohol don't usually improve a gentle demeanor.

Townes was the worst thing that ever happened to Blaze. I knew him before, and after. Now they're both dead.

That's like my friend that showed me how to shoot dope, totally his fault tho, not mine. RIP both TVZ and Blaze. Men make their own decisions, and they will live by them. Not point fingers.
