Townes Van Zandt at his best. "Rake" never fails to move me, and I've been dying to make a video for this one.

I tagged the URL of the Townes Van Zandt website onto the end of the video. If you buy your Townes stuff there the money goes to the family instead of to some faceless corporation.

  • Sorry, you 've lost Townes beats them by a long shot.

  • I would really love and appreciate if someone could go back and re-master a lot of Townes work, eliminating all of the superfluous instrumentation added to his songs that really take away from their core beauty.

    To me it should be Townes and his guitar, and that is all you need.

  • I don't care who likes and who doesn't. Why do you care that others don't agree with you? Is your opinion changed that easily?

  • 7 of you 'dislike' because you're tired of watching this over an over because it's just that AWESOME!!!

  • I watch this vid about every half year, I love it, but I still curse Townes for dying, damn him. Townes, one of the best ever, yeh. Really do not know what to say, other than check out the rest of Townes vids, and oh yeh, please, if you like Townes, check out the vids by my dead friend Handsome Ned, a good friend of mine (well, before he kicked himself)

  • @fubar50cat fact not fiction

  • townes wrote my life in this song

  • @jancamion True dat!

  • @21loondog He still IS

  • @ChrisTNMex Ran into your comment about how Townes music should be stripped, how it should be he and the guitar, and could not agree more, he was an artist that did not require anyone else to help interpret his work. Besides that, hey, if we met him in a bar, and jammed, it would just be us, not some silly string orchestra, or whatever.

  • love this as always, this vid is knockout for townes music, damn, I love this video very much. Never met Townes, did not share a beer or a bong, but know tthat I would have loved him, cause we just think alike

  • His biography,he didn't need 500 pages to move me,just a few minutes
