You can hear Townes smiling as he's telling these stories.

This is priceless. I've heard many a wild story about Townes and Blaze. never heard this one. Thanks for posting this.

Damn, this is precious listening....Townes needs his own movie now.

The best thing I've found on youtube

Florence Alabama here 👋

The unmistakable voice of Larry Monroe. He and Paul Ray used to make Austin Radio worth listening to every Saturday. There is almost no real radio going on anymore and that is online.

Quintessential Texan. Fort Worth is proud.

This is awesome. Thank you for sharing

...."And the FBI got one of Blaze's records...I hope they listened to it." -Townes VanZandt

This is so awesome. I cant wait to listen to the rest of this. Thanks for uploading this, I had no idea it even existed

oh wow unbelievable insight

And now I know the back story. Or at least I think so. Blaze had told my friend and I that he had an album ready to release but the master had been stolen. We asked him about it but he wouldn't elaborate. It's hard to imagine Blaze in a rage - but drugs and alcohol don't usually improve a gentle demeanor.

good stuff

Sounds like Fear and Loathing By Hunter s Thompson

This guy can tell a story..feel likeIs am there...😂

Townes was the worst thing that ever happened to Blaze. I knew him before, and after. Now they're both dead.
