- Western AF presents | The 2022 Encore Band The Wyoming Windbreakers | "Rex's Blues"
...
The some of our favorites were all in Laramie, Wyoming at the same time, and decided to give 2022 one last encore.
This year brought us all closer together. Gathering at festivals, venues, or around a picnic table to sing along with strangers is finally feeling normal again. Damn did we miss it. 2022 was a big one for us. We are determined to bring you even more from the musicians you love (and a bunch you will love soon) in 2023. Are heads are above water, our hearts are full, and our love for great music has never been stronger.
We are thankful to be doing this with y’all.

So my father is Steve Earle, my brother was Justin Townes Earle. I’ve heard countless versions of this song over the years including guitar pulls with Guy, Townes and dad playing it together. This version ranks way, way up there.
I miss Justin...sorry he lost his battle, he had a lot more to say.
🙏
I am so happy it moved YOU, who could matter more? No one.
Justin on Letterman turned me on to this kind of music. I owe him a debt of gratitude for that. I'm sorry for your loss.
Wish Justin was still around. His story wasn’t over. I’m so sorry for your loss
We NEED this on all streaming plattforms cause we'll all wander around in the woods while listening to this badass and loving interpretation of the original. Pls!!!
The fiddler smoking a rolled cigarette. Such a G.
This is like the Avengers of sad country
lol
Accurate AF 😂
That is the funniest/coolest thing I’ve ever read. I totally see it lol
One of the most underrated videos on this channel
Just good honest therapy for a bunch of broken good ole boys... I love it.
This is soul music. Broken soul music.
Riley sings like the ghost of Blaze is right there singing with them
I don't mean to come off or sound sideways askin ya this. But what version of this song are you referring to Foley being apart of? I would love to hear Blaze Foley lend his voice to Townes on s version.
I know this commenta yours was left backva few but I'd love to be to turned onto what you're talking bout friend.
Ben’s backup vocals are just 🤌
PLEASE PUT THIS ON SPOTIFY
It gets better if you keep listening, over and over and over
And it was already fantastic
Always go back to this one when the days seem longer.
Riley downing is a super down to earth dude. Absolutely love his work! As well as the rest of the deslondes who are my favorite artists.
I'm just so CRAZY to see all my favorites in a video period.... THE PLANETS MUST BE IN ALIGNMENT!!!!!!
Legends, all of them!
My son was born premature on December 1, who we named Townes. Seeing this on NYE while at the hospital with him was incredible.

My son weighed 2 lbs. 1 oz. at birth. He's 36 now and a teacher, also plays in a band for fun. He has always been a cheerful little pisser!
Congratulations friend :)
My youngest daughter is Townes. Named after her great grandmas maiden name and as a nod to Townes Van Zandt and the late Justin Townes Earl
This is one of those tunes that could be playing in the background for 3 hours without being phased by it.
I have buried people for over 30 years…my body is broken…my spirit is broken…This song/version..helps me trough the days..
What a wonderful little tribute to one of my favorite songwriters of all time. Townes was and always will be one of the greatest long lost music legends.

He’s a timeless treasure!
Peak content right here. So happy you all exist. Long live the Western AF family.
That’s what I’m talking about!!!! Some Sad cowboys
My favorite music and playing my favorite Townes tune
The song and the cover are great, nothing to add. Except that they play it so seriously... So impressive. What a tribute. Hats off.
Love this so much. Played this song with my 4 year old son in the car. No, he doesn’t understand all the lyrics. But he did say, “Dada, I love you” toward the end. He felt something. That’s what’s so good about these guys. True artists.
I thought that looked an awful lot like Benjamin Tod and it freaking was!
You young men are something super special to my spirit, thank you.
Yep! Back to wonderful basics!
His voice reminded me of blaze foley
This simple magic is why we subscribe.
The one singer with the deep voice sounds like blaze foley
That's Riley Downing. An amazing artist I've been fortunate enough to interview. Look up The Deslondes!
I always come back to this video... 😢❤ Ben's backing vocals....
Don't Let The Sunshine Fool Ya, Encore!
This is a great collaboration please do more, please!
One of my favorite Townes songs happy to see Riley Matt and Ben

What is Riley’s last name? Not familiar with him but what a voice
@@curtiscastor3019 Riley downing
I so badly want to hear all these guys together for more songs!!
My grandfather loved Wyoming and had been there several times throughout his life to hunt varmints (Prairie dogs, badgers, and coyote). He took me a couple times and I can still smell the sagebrush! One of the most beautiful places I've ever visited. I can proudly say I have some of my most powerful memories of my life, on a ranch on the Prairie of Wyoming near Medicine Bow about an hour from Laramie. My Grandfather was Wyoming as fu**! A great hunter and even better man.
Man alive those harmonies.
Hell yeah, do ya feel that down to your bones?
🤘🏼🔥😎
Benjamin sounding real good
Beautiful music. This is such a rare, rare thing nowadays
Respect from France 🇨🇵 Breton sailors
I can't stop listening to this. It feels like the first time I found Lost Dog & Ben's music. Everything about this is incredible. Thank you for keeping Townes' memory alive
Will always love Townes covers. It’s who I Named my son after
This video always gives me huge Heartworn Highways vibes.
Geeeeez, talk about a super band
Geez...perfection. I promise to start back up my patron sub when financial situations pick up.
Hard times, some times.
Thank you all for this. It means the world.
Hell yeah. That's quite the mashup of artists.
Amazing tribute
I got to see Townes play many years ago 1994 in a little town in the UK called Hull at a tiny venue called the New Adelphi . There was maybe 80 folks there and he was sat in front of me laying it out .
Special night . Man was amazing
Holy shit it took me 8 months to find this.. and I'm subbed... keep rocking guys. fantastic. love it
So many of my fav artists in one video. My heart is so full
Townes was the best. Literally the best american songwriter ever
AMAZING! Thank ya fellas
Whipass as hell. All my favorite modern songwriters covering my all time favorite songwriter. Love this so much. Thank you Western AF. Love your videos. Keep em coming.
Love the slower tempo and musical brakes
Imagine making a Van Zandt song sound even more pained/beautiful. Good job, all around.
so many legends in one video. i dont doubt the vibes were amazing! good work guys!
Man I think you sound like Waylon ...I seen ol Waylon live 4 times in the 70's and young man you SURE do sound like him to me..God bless you and yours

The Florida Farters… I’m spitballing here.
Wow 🎶🎶🎶💯🌬
Happy New Year to you all. I can honestly say, I have more to look forward to after finding some of the artists here on Western AF. 🤡 🌵 🐄 Much love from Southern Illinois ❤️
That was so damn pretty. Happy new year everyone
Never seen Matt hold his fiddle like that
Its a robot
Wow 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Lined up some pretty good backup players Jesus Christ!!!
LOVE the harmony and all the rest! Nice!
Beautiful! Thank you for doing this Townes song 😍
This is how music is supposed to be made! Townes was always best live with a close friend or two backing him up...I'm sorry some of his work was over-produced, same for Blaze.
What a combo! Great song to end the year folks, thank you for all the wonderful music you brought us!
Capo 2, Standard tuning
C F C all the way through on this one folks!
Alternative is D G D without Capo
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Ride the blue wind high and free
She'll lead you down through misery
Leave you low, come time to go
Alone and low as low can be
[Verse 2]
If I had a nickel I'd find a game
If I won a dollar I'd make it rain
If it rained an ocean I'd drink it dry
And lay me down dissatisfied
[Verse 3]
Legs to walk and thoughts to fly
Eyes to laugh and lips to cry
A restless tongue to classify
All born to grow and grown to die
[Interlude]
[Verse 4]
So tell my baby I said so long
Tell my mother I did no wrong
Tell my brother to watch his own
And tell my friends to mourn me none
[Verse 5]
I'm chained upon the face of time
Feelin' full of foolish rhyme
There ain't no dark till something shines
I'm bound to leave this dark behind
[Verse 6]
Ride the blue wind high and free
She'll lead you down through misery
Leave you low, come time to go
Alone and low as low can be
Thank you very much sir!!! Gonna try it out. Greetings from Germany!
@@XxXFischkopfXxX Greetings back from Hamburg, Germany haha!
@@cedarriver ohaa🤣
Best wishes & a prosperous New Year to all the artists & good folk @ Western AF .. peace from Ireland .
Blaze lives ❤️
on loop
Im talking Blue eyes Dancing & September doves.......And if you don't knoooooow now you know!
I wish I didn’t get drunk and come back to this beautiful song. My drunkenness is tainting the beauty of this incredible song. Wish I didn’t have to be… fucking truly, I do.
Bet your life that Hipsters everywhere are taking notes on the hat/shirt/sunglass/facial hair combos.
