nice story sfar.  Another great movie/documentary is "Heartworn Highway" featuring Guy & Townes among others, enjoy!

Great documentary sfar. Left one still not quite knowing what was going on in Townes' head. Steve Earle says he was a better songwriter than Dylan, which may be taking it too far.

Well, all that can be said for the rest of us is that the warranty runs out eventually.  We can stall off the inevitable to varying degrees with heroic or not so much efforts, but all records end in silence.

...if the arm lift is automatic, that is...;)  Otherwise *hiss*pop*hiss*pop*...*L*

Embrace it or fear it, we all get to step off the stage.  Enjoy the interlude...;)

Dylan's return to the Newport Folk Festival after his decades long absence due to his having gone electric...

Arlo Guthrie closed the festival Sunday night, but amidst a roster of memorable performances over the weekend was perhaps the most illuminating one for me - Guy Clark,  Lyle Lovett,  and John Hiatt, three stools, three guitars.  

First thing I did when I got home was buy their complete catalogues - they've been in my top 10 rotation ever since.  

R. I. P., Mr. Clarke, and thanks.
