Townes Van Zandt & Blaze Foley - Tribute To Clyde Buchanan 5-20-1984


Had some interest in Blaze Foley after the Blaze documentary vid, so here is a cool little recording of Blaze and his best friend Townes Van Zandt. The best I can tell is this was either a radio show, TV show, or just a benefit concert for Clyde Buchanan who was an Austin songwriter (and that's about all I know about him). What's cool about this is the little interviews in between the songs. Townes tells a nice story about Pancho & Lefty and a couple of cops. This also features one of my favorite Blaze tunes "Oval Room" which is as relevant now as it was then.
