There's so much terrible country music out there that I admit put me off. But lately I've been listening to Townes Van Zandt and well... my god

If you like Townes Van Zandt you might like Jimmie Dale Gilmore as well. You may find the first songs by Gilmore too polished if you like the realism of Van Zandt's live recordings, as I think I probably would if I had discovered Gilmore later, but listen to "Dallas" or "Tonight I think I'm gonna go downtown" to get a sense of his good lyrics in my opinion. Happy to see someone else like Townes Van Zandt!
