Townes Van Zandt – Texas Rain – The Texas Hill Country Recordings – Remastered Expanded Edition – LP with the first 1,000 LPs on limited edition clear vinyl.

At the turn of the ’90s, Townes Van Zandt began recording a series of duets in Texas with a bunch of longtime admirers that included Willie Nelson, Emmylou Harris, Jerry Jeff Walker, Freddy Fender and Doug Sahm. The full-band sessions sought to breathe fresh air into the lungs of some of his best-known songs.
Initially given a limited release in 2001, ‘Texas Rain’ has now been newly remastered and repackaged with a full-colour 20-page booklet, in-depth sleeve notes and revealing interview with original producer Kevin Eggers. It serves as one of Van Zandt’s defining works.

“This was the cream of the cream. Texas Rain is a timeless record. We really felt that we’d made a huge breakthrough in terms of our creative collaboration, the level of musicianship, the quality of the tracks and the energy we had. It was a golden time in our lives.” – Kevin Eggers – Producer & Arranger

“He was the best songwriter and most riveting solo performer I’ve ever seen.” – Steve Earle
