Product Description

From Amazon.com

On September 13, 1995, this like-minded triumvirate of country-folk singer-songwriters joined forces for a good old-fashioned song swap. The music's warmth and relaxed vibe make it sound like it was recorded on someone's back porch in Texas as opposed to Nashville's Bluebird Café. Pulled together for an Interfaith Dental Clinic benefit by Guy Clark's wife Susanna, the three old friends sing songs and tell stories in an intimate acoustic-and-a-stool atmosphere in front of an appreciative audience--what more can you ask for when you have such compelling songwriters? The ravenous cult fans of these artists will want to add these delightful performances to their collections, but newcomers will get an engaging and useful primer on the modern Texas troubadour style. --Marc Greilsamer

4.0 out of 5 stars Grows in yer heart, Dec 13 2002

Big Heefa (Chesapeake City, MD United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Together At The Bluebird Cafe (Audio CD)
I cant believe any of you whiners that dismiss this album as poor. Sure, Townes is loaded, but do you want the truth or do you want some polished puke? Townes Van Zandt is spreading the love on this one, and you can hear how the audience responds not only to his songs, but his stories, which by the way, make me laugh over and over again.
This is honest, not perfect, and beautiful.

5.0 out of 5 stars Three American music greats, up close and personal, Aug 26 2002
By 
Lakeside Listener (Clear Lake, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Together At The Bluebird Cafe (Audio CD)
I've seen Townes van Zandt criticized as unable to carry a tune. Guy Clark takes hits for limited vocal range and sounding like a back porch amateur. I once saw Steve Earle criticized as provincial in outlook. Such quibbles miss the point.

This album is rough-edged, if you only enjoy a polished production. It is recorded "warts and all," with no plastic overlays, in an intimate real-audience setting. Listen to van Zandt's outrageous tale of how he lost a tooth, or to Clark's intro to a version of his "Immigrant Eyes" made more powerful and real by the lack of plastic, and you'll be struck by the sense of immediacy that runs all through this album.

This collection wouldn't have worked half as well from inside a studio, where the words these poets string together, the emotional connection, the easy way they communicate with the audience, the honesty - it all would have been muted or lost. Here, they come through with wonderful clarity. This is one of those "little albums" that wind up at the heart of the collections of people who enjoy and follow American roots music.
