Re: Townes Far Cry from Dead?

[Kim Jensen]

This is a record coming out on Arista/Austin very soon.  They were songs
Townes recorded solo and then some great musicians  recorded the music
around the vocals.  There are many older Townes songs on it, some new ones.
Pancho and Lefty is on it.   It sounds pretty good.  Townes' widow is the
executive producer on it.

Not a weasel, just a manager with an artist on the same label,
Kim

 Someone on eBay is offering an advance promo "of Townes Van Zandt's new
CD 'Far Cry from Dead'."  They're selling it with a press kit with bio and
photo, so it sure sounds like there's a new TVZ on the horizon.  So, industry
weasels, what's the word?  Is this the stuff he was recording with Two Dollar
Guitar shortly before his death, some kind of best-of, yet another live
album,
or what?  When's it coming out?
