Here's a clip of Steve Earle playing a Townes song. This was sung during his recent concert promoting an album full of Townes songs. (The two were close enough that Earle named his son, JT, after Townes (Justin Townes Earle).) It's a nice comment on Townes' traveling lifestyle (the song he plays into at the 5:30 mark is a Van Zandt inspired song written by Steve Earle): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eKiVsUwVi1c&feature=related
