Tip off the Cowboy Hat Ron. Your Texas size head should be a little bigger then normal, and for good reason. This is more than a bunch of covers, its homage to a real songwriting legend. Many of us can relate to Townes struggles in life and the ability to cope through music. Ay least thats my take. Thanks Again for your hard work and creative ideas they really turned into something speicial.

RTZ,

It wouldn't have been half the album I believe it to be without your input. And helping me to stay on task. And contributing some of the loveliest, sensitive tracks on the whole thing. Lemme buy you a drink, pard!

 

So, you gonna be ready for some Neil Young in a coupla months?

You bet Ron, I'll get out the factory git's and bass and some drum loops. I only put a few minute on the Townes songs do to health reason, but things are better now. Neil's acoustic songs to his rampaging Les Paul with the Bigsby with Crazy Horse is just made for the CBG and the people on this site. See you there.

Man, I truly hope this music has been therapeutic for you, both physically and spiritually. Jeez,, if you only put a few minutes into your Townes efforts, I can only imagine what'll happen if you fully commit yourself! ;-)

Awesome on the NY! Yeah, I think subconsciously that's why I got the Swamp Witch: gotta hear the Witch ride The Horse!

Hi TVZ-Addicts out there... I want to say thank you to all who made this possible and especially my dearest applause to Ron for leading through the project. It was so much fun and challenge - and, by the way, I got much deeper into the Townes Van Zandt world what I'm really glad to have experienced. The variety of songs, voices, styles, sounds on this compilation is enormous.

Whenever there's another project going on ... count me in.

Thorsten,

I'm very glad you started out this project with Nothin'. ;-)

Thank you so very much for your care and talent, at both playing and mixing. You were and are an amazing gift to us.

Next project we're toying with is Neil Young. Now, that's a deep forbidden lake.

Uncle Ben's Perverted Rice needs to go on... We'll possibly do some collaboration work on Neil Young if you, Ron and all the others would join...

If you need to put the band back together, you'll find me playing the lounge bar at the Copacabana.
