Where can I read the article on Townes by William Hedgepath that is referred to by Lola Scobey in the TVZ songbook?
The article in question, it seems, is not available, but another article from the same era by that author is available in full, “Townes Van Zandt – messages from the outside”. This was published in Atlanta’s Hittin’ the Note magazine back in May 1977. The article was mailed to me by Jeanene back in 1996 to add to the Blue Sky pages. The article included two nice photographs of Townes, which I could scan in – but it would look pretty bad, being a photocopy and all. The article mentioned by Lola Scobey quoted Townes talking about his depression and included him saying “There’s been times when my hands–I took them–and I have the feeling, a very strange feeling, that if I had a machine and could just chop my hands off, then everything would be fine”. If anyone knows of such a quote in an article by Hedgepath, please let us know.
