-
Townes original premise is why he died
-
i love johnny but he cant pick like townes could

Somebody asked what he said at 2:04. He said, "I figure there's heaven, purgatory, hell, and the blues. And I'm trying to climb up from the blues, man." Addiction may sound romantic, but was a hell for him.

I love Townes's music, and I surely would have enjoyed a drink with him, but I think that's bullshit with sacrificing - I do think you're probably going to write more and "better" if you're unhappy, but the idea you even have to sacrifice is a bit too close to catholic ideas to be taken seriously...
And that story of the girl ripping her blouse off is pretty crass. But it wont be the first dodgy trailer for a (hopefully) good film (havent seen it yet)

@randomguy1774 depressed? Most great songwriters are. I guess that could be a positive outlook for someone suffering from depression.

I wish Johnny Cash had made a record of Townes Van Zandt songs. Would have been a thing of beauty. But still we got Townes.
