Hey folks, I made this video to honour the great singer & songwriter Townes Van Zandt, who passed away on New Years Eve 1997. The music comes from Lyle Lovett, who made an excellent coverversion of a TVZ song called "Flyin' Shoes" - hope you like it!

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.

Recorded in 1984 for my PBS series, "Austin Pickers". Townes talks about his Dad, learning to play guitar and "jams" with his baby boy...and does The Boss.
