You gentleman do this song real justice.
Me and my dog, Merle, we are just going to sit here and listen to this song again.
I appreciate you boys. Keep it up.

Townes Van Zandt will always be one of the greatest song writers to ever live.

Beautiful version of this song. One of my favorites of Townes

Viva the memory and music of Townes Van Zandt.
Superb job on this cover. Townes would be proud of your version.

Slowed right down & very westernized...I like your version. Just one tiny notch away from bluegrass...a standup bass & you could cross right over! Satisfying treatment of the song as it is...

[@jacobberry9711]

Just absolutely impeccable harmonies boys. Thank you.

[@patrickramey5870]

Townes was one of the best songwriters of all time.That being said.I like this arrangement better.

Just saw these gentlemen Thursday in Knoxville at the intimate Bijou. What a wonderful evening and this song brought the curtain down for me. I was in the front row and felt like I was living history up close. They were spectacular as were the Local Honeys.
Phil absolutely owns that stage.
The love he has for music is more than evident.
