Blaze Foley: Faded Loves (alt doc opening)

- (The alternate opening for the documentary Blaze Foley: Duct Tape Messiah.) In creating the documentary about Blaze Foley, we considered many different openings. A good opening is hard to create, because it has to work hard: set up the theme, establish expectation for what the film is about, build anticipation and set the hook, making the viewer want to watch the rest of the film. Although this particular opening works well, by showing Blaze and establishing him as a quirky character, it's not a good first impression and it's not his best performance. But I love his jokes and banter with the audience, which people tell me was one of the fun parts of his show, his talking with the audience.

First time I heard Blaze, got goosebumps and cried. I’ve been into music since the 1970’s. Spent a good portion of my income on music. 50 years and I’ve never cried or got goosebumps as much as that day I found Blaze Foley. Imagine the music he would’ve made. I curse the POS that took him away from us.
Same brother same
He wanted to be a legend, and he is undoubtedly just that. Things are the way they are, people get sick, people die. The best we can do is appreciate it while they’re still here with us.
I love seeing the beer dripping from his mustache
Can't believe he was only 39 when he died. That old boy had some miles on him.
I love when he drunkenly pauses before he says the handling the truth line ...this guy is perfect top shelf right here
“I wasn’t lyin, I may have handled the truth a little rough”
Said it once or twice in my day
His voice was so so strong....
Alcohol is a damn demon to some people... RIP Blaze , or something close to that... 🙏
wonderful talent and growing up in a home with an alcoholic is hell, believe me
@@bonnie_gail I have no problem believing you..... alcohol is cruel , insidious , and leaves a trail of destruction ♥️
What a songwriter. It doesn't hurt to have that big booming voice either.
Almost as deep as Waylon's.
I think i have played this a 1000 times over...We need more songwriters like Blaze...Good stuff here thanks...
ElwoodBlues2480 Look up Jimmy Swope
I wrote this at hank Williams house..."When nobody was home" ...humility is dead...
I can hear Hank Williams in that song. What a soulful performance
Nobody hits me as hard as Blaze. Not even Townes.
I love, I mean, really worship Townes and his style. But there is something in the sheer minimalism of blaze that can NOT be beat. He can say just as much, if not more, in a few short lines, some that don't rhyme, than Townes said with all his masterful poetry. Consider this verse;
almost felt you touching me just now
wish I knew which way to turn and go
feel so good, and then I feel so bad
wonder what I ought to do
sets a scene, paints a vivid description, relates perfectly to anyone that has ever felt that feeling, and does not even rhyme. True master. People don't realise the artistic talent required to pull this off. He didn't write simple songs because he was musically stunted or not gifted. He was simple and minimal by choice. If an intermediate musician came across Blaze's work they might mistakenly dismiss it as simple folk/country and tell themselves its not really exceptional due to the simplicity and continue about their lives thinking they could pull that off easily if they chose to. They'd be dead wrong. Very few have ever done it, I would however consider John Moreland up there with Townes and Blaze. Not every song is a perfect and hits as hard as Townes and Blaze, but there are a few where he reaches that pinnacle of expression. I've heard them all, i mean ALL of them, and he is the only other in my extremely well researched opinion.
And that's sayin something...
Even when Steve is pining because of Townes.
Just passing a moment on, but check out Steve doing Pancho on this Canadian show with George strombolopalis* sic.
It's something to witness.
The film on Steve's glasses. Tone, one man audience, it'll make ya cry like I am right now listening to blaze.
Blaze did out do them all.
Raw.
Soul and Sandpaper.
I'm glad I'm not the only one that feels this way.
Something about ol Blaze, man
The missing paining in the fence is a metaphor for the tooth he has lost
Woman's liberation alive and well. Good come-backs my Brother Blaze. Sing on! Preach on! Much LOVE!
Wish he could have kept on preaching...
Blaze was bad ass, sober or drunk!
In my opinion Duct Tape Messiah is the most beautiful and brilliant Documentary, that I ever have seen. I have seen it more than 20 times, and every time I find something new in it.
Moreover, so happy that Kevin Triplett is broadcasting different videos and interviews, that was'nt included in the final cut of the Duct Tape Messiah. This alternate Documentary opening is a masterpiece, and Faded love and memories is one of Blaze most beautiful masterpiece songs.
Where can you find this documentary? I have been searching all over the internet.
@@MasteringSilenceK
The best way is to contact Kevin Triplett, who made the documentary, he is selling it on DVD for a very good price. I bought it myself 2013.
drunk as a snake still pretty damn good...unusual critter but first class
Wish he was still with us ..but iam so happy his music is...
I'm just seeing this video for the first time. This is great!
I can hear Hank Williams in that song. What a soulful performance
So sad. Most of the musicians I’ve played with are gone and they left too early . I never played with Blaze, it’s just that it made me think of them all…
Such a talent.
What a poet
If it wasn't for dogs there would be no puppies! Blaze was drunk with beer dripping down his beard but when he played and sang it was perfect
Hard yo comprehend he was 6 years younger than me when he died. May he take comfort in tye fandom he has due to these videos ❤
Yesterday's, faded memories.( Boy).
simply awesome!
Emotion Pure emotion
Working on getting it online somewhere -- for now, you can order a DVD from the movie website (see link in video description above).
Great song for a wedding!
Beautiful.
man I love that dude.
" I wuddin lyin ... I mighta been handlin the truth a little rough . "
All hail the king 👑
This is for the green green grass and dogs... if it wasn't for dogs, there wouldn't be puppies.
I love Blaze
My deodorant just wore out. Frank Zappa ain't got nothin' on you Buddy!
Great song!
Sho miss ya man!
Troubled soul 👍👏
Top guy
My deodarant just wore out 😂😂😂😂
true blaze
@zkafel Found blaze foley because of the kings of leon interview bet he was a down to earth bloke i'm obsessed with his era life on the freight trains travelling and singing.What a presence he had,Truest of a artist?
He wasn't a hobo, he was known to sleep under pool tables though .
@@nashvilleslim niiiiice
@@justthinking526 its absolutely truth he was just a drunk to be honest trust me I'm an expert at. He did write some very good songs though. John Prine was better. Blaze wanted to be as good as John. His time ran out and that's a shame. If he was able to to stick around really get hot and keep the outlaw country scene going who knows what a legend he might have become.
I could tell some tales and drop some names about Blaze and some times on Clausen Lane. But I won't'. RIP and have some Girl Scout cookies.
Got a buddy that swears he'll kill me if I play him blaze and make him curl up fetal again because he speaks the truth.
wow, im a fan
My late brother loved this pathetic old lush and now I see why
R I P Blaze and Tony
Sweet!
Wish I could of met the man.
The woman in the audience that was picking at him , so sad how people treat one another. Bet she feels good about herself now.
Yes, she seems to be very rude. I know where I would of shoved that guitar 🎸
After ol Hank died he might have come back as Blaze..
I have the same question oldnrone has...I've been waiting to see the film since it was first announced that they were making it. When can we see it?
Wow
They should teach this in school
Fu..... AUWSOME he's amazing thanks for sharing love it sad but true wish I could play 🎸 to dumb but question I have a fiddle that needs some work its a stataviourios copy needs stings etc you can have it
Can someone please write what Blaze s saying for non English speakers like me, please? 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
“This is the last song I’m gonna do because my deodorant just wore out”. Ha!
It causes mucussssss
Jesus, i thought i was tortured. He's singing a sad song and people are laughing at him?
There wouldn't be no 🐶🐶!
Wow! XOXO
I'm struggling to accept that I am now older than Blaze.
Why do the great Texas Artists die aloone and unknown?
Guns
Jeremy Reagan It's the fate of many of the greats
Tremendous Sax,
You just hear about it for "the greats".
It happens to more than them, though, and no one ever hears or knows about the others, nor ever remembers them. Now those are the ones who are REALLY "aloone and unknown".
Nice....I'd really, really like to see the film. When might that be possible?
What a GUY!
There is a new film out called BLAZE. Made by Ethan Hawke. It’s incredible. Hope you can see it.
👍👍👍
There is a youtube video called "Kings of Leon Interview (March 2010)" that may be the interview @flairross referenced. (I didn't watch it, I'm in a public place at the moment, and TH-cam won't let me post a link to the video.)
@mopacmedia
Where can I watch the completed documentary?
Was that Robert Kardashian giving him the beer?
Could you send me a link to the interview by any chance?
Only open your mouth to change feet 🤷♂️🤣
Crying like a baby.
Hope all is well for you.
Me too

A little sad this great talent playing backyard parties.
This was a friends wedding party. Probably several people played that day hanging out. I'd like to know who's wedding it is. T and J. or S and R? I'm not sure of the years they married.
He had so much going on, he was a great songwriter. Too bad he had no sense, he got himself killed .
He was watching out for his friend who he loved, he died for a Nobili cause, The Bible says “ no greater love hath a man than to lay down his life for his brother.”
@@realitycheck7556 Well said brother, great perspective .

no disrespect to the great foley but i got a fart that could kill a bear and always wish he could have wrote a song about one of my fartsa killing a man in cold blood
I am trying to like blaze and his songs and personality, but he is coming off as my out of work drunk uncle. Just kinda entertaining himself, talking to himself, trying to justify his half hearted lyrics and his bad voice. I guess I don't get it???
You don't get it at all. So glad you took the time to reflect and post
So it seems
Maybe top 40 country radio is more your cup of tea if your looking for glitzy productions and sweet voices.
It takes a person with a soul to get Blaze Foley..And Townes..Just stick with your cheap plastic pop country you listen to on the radio..Blaze's music is beyond your realm of cognitive reality.
@@bobclark7939 Thanks man!
I love when he drunkenly pauses before he says the handling the truth line ...this guy is perfect top shelf right here
