Recommended to me by a friend, Townes Van Zandt was a brilliant country/folk singer-songwriter who died in 1997. His songs have been covered by people like Steve Earle, Willie Nelson, Robert Plant and Alison Krauss.

I particularly like the song Rake (not one for the happy songs thread!)
really haunting (not keen on the video though)

Townes Van Zandt was the best songwriter ever to have walked the earth, and I'll stand on Dave's balls in my cowboy boots and say that
