| | Townes Van Zandt Acoustic Blue CD Townes Van Zandt Discography of CDs
Ori. Release '03 includes Previously Unreleased 13 Live trax recorded from his European concerts in 1994 to 1996 also features a studio version of 'Nothing' recorded 3 weeks before his death .
These live solo tracks from Tomato's vault were recorded in Germany in 1994 and 1996, near the end of Townes Van Zandt's life. While they may not be the best of his many live releases, they aptly demonstrates why this singer/songwriter is so revered. With a voice capable of carrying all the pain, sadness, and regret in the world, Van Zandt brought a weary resignation to every song he sang. Here, the highlight is his rendition of the old folk song "Coo Coo," which, inVan Zandt's hands, becomes a bluesy lament to a lifetime of rambling and gambling, and the pain and deep regret are so tangible in his voice that the song loses its inherent mysterious center, becoming the cry of a haunted and wounded man. This probably isn't the album to start with to get a taste of this marvelous talent, but longtime fans will want to seek it out to hear Van Zandt in some of his last performances. ~ Steve Leggett
Personnel includes: Townes Van Zandt (guitar).
Mojo (Publisher) (1/04, p.99) - 4 stars out of 5 - "Some consummate takes: the agonised vocal on 'Waitin' Around To Die', the guitar playing on 'Short-Haired Blues' or doomy, grim 'The Hole'." Acoustic Blue Review

Acoustic Blue CD music
$12.39 STUMBLE INTO GRACE was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Folk Album.
Over three decades into a highly successful career as an interpreter of other writers' material, Emmylou Harris beats the odds by releasing her second consecutive album of original compositions. She's had plenty of time to learn from the best, and the lessons gained from digging into the work of writers like Gram Parsons, Leonard Cohen, and Townes Van Zandt can be felt here, even if she can't be expected to equal their mastery. She works again with members of the Spyboy band that helped reinvent ...
