  • ..saw townes belt this out in London in 1996just weeks before he died; half the speed and beautifully raw but with exquisite delivery. I was fortunate to meet townes five times in all the first ocassion was in Merseyside England when I conducted and recorded an interview with him for BBC Radio. It was never broadcast however and remains quite a treasure. May post it at some point if folk are interested..? long live the mighty townes

  • I CONTACTED NEW WEST RECORDS which releases some of the Ausin City limits older stuff which is Steve Earle tied up in it some way they said its out of print. However as you can see they let them put parts of this 1976 show in the film. ttOWNES NEEDS TO BE SHARED AND APPRECIATED

  • What a tragedy that this isn't the full version!

  • @vanzandt71 please post!

  • @vanzandt71 u have to (please)...sure evrybody would love to see it. me included

  • Thanks so very much for this. I don't think I have ever seen Townes smile and look happy. I thought it was impossible from another documentary I saw. I am glad I saw him happy, if only for a brief time. Thank you.

    hi lordkoos (and all van zandt fans).

    I am writing to clarify that my interview with townes which was conducted in merseyside in april 1994 is AUDIO and not a VIDEO (although I certainly wish I could have filmed it..!). Also I must apologise for not posting it yet.. I plan to do this over the next month.

  • @vanzandt71 Please post your interview, these things are important.

  • This is from Austin City Limits in 1976 and over the last several years New West has brushed off a few requests I've made into its possible release. More fans need to contact them to appeal to their financial if not artistic sense. With the recent re-release of his albums on vinyl, relative popularity of alt-country / folk, and a devoted fan base, they may eventually hear us. If you care about his work, you should want this out there so let New West know.

  • This is the clip from "Be here to love me" Great doc. Heartworn Highways is also my favorite
