A year ago I was literally driving through the mountains outside Raton,NM and this song came on the radio. I thought it was gonna be the beginning of Armageddon. True story. Great song.
First time I heard this song was on an AM station on the new Mexico safety corridor about an hour outside of Raton, NM Leaving Texas with a broken heart and shattered dreams moving to Colorado. It hit pretty hard. Been a fan ever since.
Raton always marked when we passed from OK/TX up into the Rockies and Colorado and up to granddad's cabin west of Carbondale. Love this song, and I might be aware of almost every mile from Raton to Trinidad.
My wife and I always liked this song, this band, their sound, etc. we got married on our 2022 trip to Arizona. The fam damily, mom and the puppy too. Got married for $33 in Sterling, Colorado, after an amazing lunch in town.Had our fun seeing family for a little over a week. It was the time of our family's lives. My mother saw my grandmother for the first time in 20yrs and likewise myself. On the way back to Wisconsin we somehow ended up on the Raton pass and it had snowed!! I'm not kidding. So here we are almost 2 years later still reminiscing with every note of this musical masterpiece!
Remembering Townes Van Zandt who left us early this morning in 1997. Beautiful cover, thanks for posting.
