Somehow I wound up on this guy again, am just wondering, did he ever write a great song? Everything I've heard is pretty ok, but standard and forgettable country to my ears.

I've always thought the story of what happened to his body after he died is far more interesting...

You sound like you need some Townes in your life.

^^ Those are nice. Yeah I ended up hearing a bit of Townes (great name btw), he seems to have much more pathos but also sounds more folk than country.

Well if you want more country then Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, and Merle Haggard will do you right.

^These are all certified bangers. I've always been like an old country fan but recently I watched the Ken Burns Country Music thing and it's set me off on a whole thing. Flying Burrito Brothers is like the greatest shit ever.
