To Live Is To Fly (Townes Van Zandt) by Peter Rowan

[ex0ja]

something about his face makes me feel like I've known him my entire life

[waterfordrs22]

He should certainly record the entire tune. A buddy of mine mentioned he played a fabulous version of this with Tony Rice at a show last year. I can only imagine how good that had to be.

wish he didn't leave out half the lyrics.

When Pete Rowan was young and singing with the Bluegrass Boys he had a beautiful voice that was as good as any bluegrass/country vocalist.

Now he`s older his voice is even more wonderful.

Thanks for uploading the clip. Fantastic.
