Out of Stock

Townes Van Zandt is one of the greatest singer-songwriters to have ever lived, and it’s not even worth discussing. But his music took on another dimension when he played live. This is a 180g 2 LP gatefold set of his best live recording. Here's what our friends at Waterloo have to say about it:

“When listening to this record, it's easy to acknowledge that you're tapped into the troubled poet at his zenith. In the pantheon of popular music, you'd have a difficult time finding a more perfect union of artist and venue captured in a live setting. Recorded in 1973 yet released in 1977, the performance fell squarely in Van Zandt’s most fertile period of writing. The in-between-song banter, the charismatic jokes, and the background noise of the small barroom give this record the feel of sitting close to the stage, hanging on every word.”
