Heartbreaking performance

Just listened to this by Townes van Zandt.

Might very well have been his last performance. He died about a month later. Totally hearbreaking to hear. I could hardly listen all the way through.

 

Here is a version of the same songs some years before.

 

 

One of my favorite performers and one of my favorite songs. Very sad his life ended so early.

Wow. As one person said on another thread - 'Time to cut out my heart with a dull knife again.' One of my all time favorite songs - now has taken on more depth and meaning.

 

 

 

Here's a song Warren Zevon did when he knew his number had come up. "Keep Me In Your Heart"

And then there's Eva Cassidy....

Well this thread is full of wonderful people and performances and the world is without a doubt worse off without them , and yet you just have to look out your window or spend a day at work , or heaven forbid, turn on the tv and you'll see a multitude , fit and well and doing no good at all , who you'd swap for these people at the drop of a hat

Unfortunately you're all too right about that.
