Story4.5 out of 5 stars 64
This is the first serious biography of a man widely considered one of Texas’ - and America’s - greatest songwriters. Like Jimmie Rodgers, Woody Guthrie, Robert Johnson, and Hank Williams, Townes Van Zandt was the embodiment of that mythic American figure, the troubled troubadour.

A lot of useless details to fill pages
Reviewed: 03-28-21
The story of Townes’ life was interesting and heartbreaking.
Unfortunately the author included way too many useless details in an effort to prolong the story.
The reader was very robotic and difficult to listen to for extended periods
