Lucinda Williams - Blaze Foley

For as long as I have been a Lucinda Williams fan, I have loved this song. I must admit - until recently, I thought the song was about Townes Van Zandt. I briefly even considered that it might be about Gram Parsons, but I think Lucinda must have been only about eight years old when Gram died.

Anyway, this song is about Blaze Foley.
