Called the greatest songwriter ever by Nashville rebel Steve Earle, A Far Cry from Dead is a collection of the sharp, insightful writing that led Earle to make such a bold claim about Townes Van Zandt. Included are the songs that became hits for others, such as " Pancho & Lefty" (which Willie Nelson made into a 1983 hit), as well as the material that made Van Zandt a revered songwriter & performer in his own right. More than anything, though, the album showcases just how honest & revealing Va ...

Not surprisingly, when one listens to these early recordings of Townes Van Zandt it's obvious he was from the jump, someone & something that arrived fully formed. Even if the songs themselves weren’t quite as refined as what they would become, virtually all of the elements are in place: the poetry, the stark melodies, the restless wanderlust, the inherent melancholy & impenetrable darkness; all of which that would inhabit his lyrics & delivery for the rest of his too short life. The songs ...

Recorded at Bradley's Barn, Nashville, Tennesee. All tracks have been digitally remastered. Van Zandt followed 1969's landmark OUR MOTHER THE MOUNTAIN a year later with this equally definitive album. The latter's big production is scaled down considerably here, & the focus is on a much more subdued, folky feel. The gentle acoustic fingerpicking doesn't obscure the sharply observed fatalism of " None But the Rain" or the ominous " Waiting Around to Die, one of Townes' best (and not coinciden ...

Tracy Chapman exploded out of the Boston folk scene in the late eighties, carrying the acoustic guitar-playing singer/songwriter mantle to a more political & socially conscious level than had recently been achieved. Her deep alto & throttled vocal delivery, combined with attentively scrutinized social scenarios presented in a simple, accessible manner, rocketed Tracy to the top of the charts & into the Grammy record books. Instrumentally crisp & minimal, TRACY CHAPMAN is a compelling sta ...
