Mr.Mudd and Mr. Gold

One of my favorite Townes Van Zandt songs. I'm still memorizing the words, hence the music stand. The ultimate metaphor, life as a poker game


My cd features two more songs by Townes Van Zandt, "Lungs" and "Blaze's Blues"

[boicrazirocker]

what is this sing called

[oldnrone]

Nice. This is not the easiest song to cover. Well done!

[cachetown]

great job man, I love this song.

[wjwmusician]

Thanks,I'm glad you liked it. TVZ was such a great songwriter, and a lot of his stuff went unnoticed by so many. Of course here in Texas, he ranks right up there with Dylan. This song kind of "hits me where I live", so to speak.,If the singer feels it, I've always beleived the listener can tell. Thanks for your kind remark, it helps to validate what I'm trying to do here, which is bring the "real world" back into the music.

[GrandmasterFalsch]

Man, you're actually better than some of the commercial C&W stars who try to cover Townes' stuff - and fail. Good going...

[wjwmusician]

Thanks Bob, I appreciate that. I went through your songs, they're all very well done. I hope to post more later, hope you do the same..
