KillerB Recommended

Steve Earle recently released an album called Townes, which is a collection of Townes Van Zandt cover songs. Townes Van Zandt has always been my favorite songwriter - and I really like Steve Earle too, so this one is in my wheelhouse.

Anyway, it reminded me of a documentary I saw a few years ago, and in particular a scene in which Townes sits down with a blacksmith called Uncle Seymour and plays "Waitin' Around to Die". This comes KillerB approved. Try not to cry.
