Biography

Townes Van Zandt lived the songs he sang. Sadly, that meant he couldn't live long. The hard-living Texas songsmith was 52 when he died on New Year's Day, 1997. Though he failed to make an impact on the charts during his lifetime, he was greatly respected among the country and folk singers around him and his works have been re-recorded by many notable artists including Nanci Griffith and Lyle… Read more in Amazon's Townes Van Zandt Store

5.0 out of 5 stars AS GREAT AS ANY OF HIS MUSIC, February 2, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Flyin Shoes (Audio CD)
Townes Van Zandt is one of the greatest american songwriters ever, no less than Dylan, Guthrie and the kind. He certainly deserves much wider recognision. I couldn't believe I'm the first person writing review on his album. If you love anything about this country, listen to this great American (read Universal) music. By the way, does anybody know if it's possible to find his great live album "Live At The Old Quarter" on CD

5.0 out of 5 stars GREATNESS IN SIMPLICITY..., April 11, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Flyin Shoes (Audio CD)
Townes Van Zandt is a great songwriter because he gets to the heart of the matter with such simplicity. He is usually known for his melancholy ('Rex's Blues' is only the tip of the iceberg), but his 'up' songs are just as memorable. 'Brother Flower' and 'Flyin' Shoes' are both very hummable, and 'Pueblo Waltz' is also a very good song.
