Austin was the place to be back then, for a music lover.[/QUOTE]

I don't think I've ever seen someone look so cool in a completely unmolested denim jacket.

If we're gonna talk great songwriters, may as well put the three greatest America has produced in the last 60 years in one post:

Ry Cooder.

Such a talent. The number of movies he's composed the music for is incredible. Just watched "Geronimo, an American Legend."

Three greatest? Not a bad trio, but this guy deserves a nod...

I loved his soundtrack from "Long Riders". And "Crossroads" was a good one too.

My favorite Guy Clark story is the one where he locked himself in his bedroom, to hide from TVZ, and nailed the door shut. After a while he had to relieve himself but couldn't get the nails out. He tried to open the windows, but couldn't do that either. In the meantime, he wrote Let Him Roll in his locked room.

if we are talking about song writers lets not leave out some of the best to ever breathe
