Kris Kristofferson's "Chase the Feeling" is one of the best songs of his career and came out 30 years after his "prime". Todd Rundgren's Liars (fav track: "Afterlife") may be my favorite of his and was likewise released 30 years after Something / Anything?. a track that stuns me every time off of Willie Nelson's 1998 album Teatro. many such examples, often times the greats never cease being great

This is the third Townes album I have listened to, and I think my favorite so far !! It’s a live album recorded in the late 70s. Townes is a songwriter who seldom wastes a word, and his storytelling feels both personal and mythical at once. He weaves his own life into both the straighforward ballads, and the outlaw country character portraits. Waiting Around to Die has brought me to tears on more than one occasion. My favorite song on the album at the moment is White Freight Liner Blues, a candid track about his struggles with heroin, and being sadenned to see his friends ailed by the same affliction. Townes is truly one of the great American songwriters.

heard this album for the first time yesterday and i was really blown away. really inspiring guitar work, evocative lyricism, and just a deep melancholic, longing atmosphere throughout the albums hour long runtime.
Peterson formally was the vocalist for Lift to Experience, a short lived post rock / shoegaze band from texas who released the high concept, biblically inspired album the Texas-Jerusalem crossroads in 2001. one of my favorite albums, and listening to his solo stuff really cemented him as one of my favorite songwriters. even if you typically don’t like the country-adjacent singer songwriter stuff i’d highly recommend checking this out.
