“Pancho & Lefty” (Townes Van Zandt - Cover)
From the album: “LIVE from the Desert” (stream at found.ee/LiveFromTheDesert)
Once another storm blew in to our full band / outdoor set, we were forced to find an indoor area to keep tracking.
Fortunately there’s a beautiful, old church in the ghost town portion of Terlingua, TX. We set up two condenser mics & started filming/recording with one, continuous, live take.
If there was ever a songwriter worth covering, it’s Townes Van Zandt… and this is my favorite song he ever wrote.
I hope y’all enjoy it!

This song is religious in country music. So appropriate in a chapel. Amazing.

This is what's missing in today's music. There is so much heart in the way you guys play

Shane, I hope you guys get the massive amounts of recognition you all deserve. I remember hearing "The End" for the first time almost two years ago- that song still ignites a dream in my mind every time I hear it. Keep that golden voice singing as long as you can- means the world to a lot of us.

Thanks for keeping your sound true to your soul.. so many times we see artist put out material they think commercial outlets want to hear. I understand some of that, but the fans will support true artistry for a life time vs. a flash in the pan. Thanks for not being a sell out.

This is ok, but it's been done by the best you can hear sing it and it's not easy hearing Lefty and Pancho by Willie Nelson. But Willie would be proud of you guys.. i like y'all's music shane smith and the great saints.. good ol' boys.
