Abstract The writer of such influential songs as "Pancho and Lefty", "To Live's To Fly, "If I Needed you", and "For the Sake of the Song", Townes van Zandt exerted an influence on at least two generations of Texas musicians that belies his relatively brief, deeply troubled life. The author interviews both well-known musicians and up-and-coming artists to reveal, in the performers' own words, how their creative careers have been shaped by the life and work of Townes van Zandt.
