    I got to see him play about 10 or 12 times, and when he was on he’d take you into another world. He played often at a club called The Austin Outhouse, but maybe a third of the shows he was too drunk to play well, and nearly another third he didn’t show up at all. One time when he didn’t show up we walked up the hill to Uncle Nasty’s bar maybe two blocks away, and he was there! People tried to help but he’d drive them away. What an amazing songwriter though.

    Stand to throw a shadow.
    Watch it grow into a night
    And fill the spinning sky.” (“Highway Kind”)

    That "later life voice comparison" clip is from "Solo Sessions", a really great recorded concert. Should check it out.
    And I've recommended him before, but you gotta listen to Jackson C. Frank. Tragic, TRAGIC life. The old to young voice comparison of his is even more extreme.

    As sad as his story is I’m glad you showed it. He had a poetic sounding name and rough aristocratic looks and an innate talent for music. What a hellish thing they put him and many others through with those insulin treatments that basically erase your memories ( basically erase YOU ) Trust no one. Question everything.… esp so- called experts. Yikes I’m becoming weird😂 but anyway Rory… glad you told his story.
