Townes covering Bruce:
Townes Van Zandt – Racing in the Streets
Von seinem ’93er-Livealbum „Roadsongs“, das Aufnahmen aus der Zeit Ende der 80er / Anfang der 90er versammelte.
In den Liner Notes wird Townes Van Zandt zitiert mit:
„This is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard. I listened to it 30 times in a row at Lomax’s house. We drove 300 miles the next day, I played it and somebody recorded it. That’s why I didn’t know better. Bruce will understand.“
