  • From a public access show in Austin TX. back in the 80's. This is the man that Lucinda Williams is singing about in the song Drunkin Angel. This song was written about Ronald Reagan but works even better today for George Bush. RIP Blaze. Hope there's plenty of duct tape and cold beer where ever you are.......................
    Updating this to now include trump

    The beauty of this song is its flexibility to go with any president because this song describes them all…

    Great! I know this video was produced by the legendary Hank Sinatra (no joke) who's been videotaping tons of Austin musicians for the past thirty years or more. I hope he gets to release this video, because I know the quality will be better. But this is better than nothing!!

    I'm working on the documentary about Blaze and I've heard similar stories. He was apparently deep into his addictions and demons in the late 80s in Austin. One close friend of his told me they saw him steal the tip she left on a restaurant table! But his early life is remembered by many as sweeter and purer, giving what he had to others. Sweet and sour!

    Thank you so much everyone for cramming your insightful political retort down the throats of TH-cam. Well I'm off to the BMW dealer. Oh don't worry if you are out of a job right now. The money I spend today is going to trickle down to you eventually. That is if Obamacare does not completely bankrupt our courtly like universal health care did to Canada and England.
