One of the great songwriters. Rest in Peace.

His Austin Sessions album is an excellent one with a bunch of his great songs. Totally recommend.

"See him wasted on the sidewalk in his jacket and his jeans
Wearing yesterday's misfortunes like a smile.
Once he had a future full of money love and dreams
Which he spent like they were going out of style.
"

Athlete, academic, soldier, helicopter pilot and handy with a turn of phrase.
He made a mark on my youth.
RIP.
Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.
