Townes Van Zandt - For the Sake of the Song (1968)

"For the Sake of the Song" by Townes Van Zandt


When Steve Earle made his decision to become a singer-songwriter, he was influenced by his appreciation and love of the music of Townes Van Zandt.  So much so, that Earle moved to Houston to seek out Van Zandt.  For a time, Earle survived on couches and local bars and eventually met his hero and became his mentee of sorts.

Here is the discography surrounding Townes Van Zandt's debut album:
