  • Me too, Ross.  And my friend, Ted, does some nice Steve Earle and Rodney Crowl. 

  • Thanks John, I found Guy's music through Townes music and his story. Kinda put me on a Texas songwriter trip i'm still on.

  • I found my way back here and I am glad I did.  Besides the great song and performance, I am appreciating the photos even more.

  • I would have to go with 'Stuff That Works' among a lot of great choices.  

  • Thanks Unc, from what I've read  poetry was a big inspiration to Guy. He was a big Dylan Thomas fan and in the song Cold Dog Soup he wrote  about his favorites  like Tom Waits, Townes, William Butler Yeats,

    I think Randall Knife is my favortie

  • Thanks R. Johnson

  • I love this song.   I wore out a Jerry Jeff Walker cassette tape that had this one.  Great photos too.  You make this sound very real and heart felt.

    One of Guy's songs I have done is his great 'Stuff That Works.'   One of my Pandora radio channels is Guy Clark.  

  • Love it!

  • Thanks Dave, they were a family of songwriters.

  • Loved this RTZ. Thanks. Nice photos too.
