Guy Clark - To Live Is to Fly

[Mouldytone]

I love the songs of Guy and the late, great Townes but I`ve never understood why Guy doesn`t include the first verse of Townes` beautiful song. Evidentally Townes was staying with Guy when he wrote the song and Guy was the first person to hear him sing it. If you haven`t heard the first verse check out Townes version. This is an observation and in no way meant as a criticism. Just wonderin`....

Guy Clark doing a tribute to his friend Townes Van Zandt. Does it get any better than this? I don't think so. :-)

[Yowzarrific]

Love to have a beer or two with this Guy.

[Deerbridge]

Great ode to a lifelong friend ! Guy's the man to carry Townes' spirit on...

And - yeah - love them both !!

[handymf]

[bmrti]

Van Zandt and Guy Clark...two geniuses

[Rauoul]

A great Townes song being kept alive by his friend, the great Guy Clark.

This is the song I want played at my funeral. The combination of Guy's beautiful arrangement, and Townes poetic lyrics, I can't think of anything more suited at my funeral.

are you in a hurry to leave this world ^^?

[mistascott007]

A legend singing a legend's song. Excellent.

[cartiledge]

Yes. But I'd like to know the date on this. guy sounds kind of tired. The last time I saw him live which was two years ago he wasn't really making all the notes.

[mistascott007]

He had been recovering from lymphoma during 2007 so the chemo might have been having an effect.

[mistascott007]

Guy doesn't make the notes. The notes make him. Figure that one out.

Sometimes you write the song,sometimes the song writes you.

[alexrutledge]

This is my favorite song by the late great Townes Van Zandt. He will be missed.

[saustin151]

Saw Guy at The Cactus Cafe,in Austin,last night!!!

JT Van Zandt was there as well...nice guy!!

[PleaseDraftMe]

I was gonna go to that show! If I hadn't been in the hospital I would have been there for sure. Glad you had a good time.

Had the pleasure of standing with Guy whilst Joe Ely creamed Terry Allen over a pool table once. Hes just about as humble as they come. Guy ROCKS! Thanks musiclover for sending this to me.
