Some folks (justifiably) argue that Bob Dylan is the greatest singer-songwriter to ever live. While I would never argue against that designation, I must respectfully disagree. For me, Townes Van Zandt stands alone at the top of the singer-songwriter pantheon. His lyrics are as joyous, poignant, and devastating as the tragic life he led. The way he lived and the hand his parents had in subjecting him to insulin shock therapy (which destroyed his long term memory) certainly contributed to his relative obscurity and designation as a "song-writer's song-songwriter." His music is often simply labled "country", but if you truly listen to his discography you will quickly discover that this man's music transcended any particular genre-labeling. There are country songs but there are many songs that simply are not country and others only casually related. The power and depth of his voice along with his superior picking skills were best experienced live, with just Townes and his guitar. That's why this beautiful live performance is considered his best work. This is powerful music and we will rarely be graced with such a talented songwriter as emerged from Texas in the 1960's.

This album remains the definitive source for much of the freak folk being made today. It cannot be described, as you will never hear anything that sounds similar to the demonic fantasy found on this record. Do yourself a favor and listen to the truly original music Comus' brief career provided the world.
