Start with \"For the Sake of the Song,\" an oft-recorded classic here enlivened by tasteful percussion. Move on to a couple of Van Zandt's gritty, death's door laments--\"Waiting Around to Die\" (where the ex-con protagonist finds a friend in codeine) and a miner's sad tale, \"Lungs.\" \"Colorado Girl\" is another in a career-long series of paeans to Colorado, where Van Zandt went to college. \"I'll Be Here in the Morning\" is a tender love song, while the Dylanesque \"Fare Thee Well, Miss Carousel\" is almost playful. Like most Van Zandt albums, this one has the obligatory buried-but-beautiful small masterpiece, in this case the undeniably gorgeous \"(Quicksilver Daydreams of) Maria.\" The closer is another oft-covered piece of scrimshawed tunesmithery, \"None but the Rain.\" This 1969 effort is the first of several essential Van Zandt albums. \u003ci\u003e--Robert Baird\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Bramble","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48250077970650,"sku":null,"price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0803\/1361\/4554\/files\/original_720x720_2x_17149085-a32f-4785-9282-1426b06bead3.jpg?v=1784587279","url":"https:\/\/bramblewv.com\/products\/townes-van-zandt-townes-van-zandt-lp","provider":"Bramble","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
