Good Townes Van Zandt Covers Mixtape →
Found this after seeing that Devendra Banhart did a cover of Colorado Girl. I listened to it one time through and all the songs are enjoyable to listen to.

Interest 1
Thing I dislike: Feeling like the weather is an inconvenience.
Thing I like: Thinking of haiku’s about my scooter on a hot summer day surrounded by the sound of cicada’s, occasionally looking up at the sky.
“In the cicada’s cry.
No sign can foretell.
How soon it will die”
