Your first sentence in the overview is wrong. Not just Texas's greatest but probably tied with Dylan for America's greatest. They have vastly different styles - Dylan is a moveable feast, Guy hews songs seemingly from time itself, polishes them into gems that only he can truly perform although great singers have done great covers. I have read the book almost to shreds because this life is so compelling and though I could do without the conceit of someone voicing excerpts from Susannah's diary, the story speaks for itself as you follow the pillar in the heart of the storm. And the performances shine. If you don't cry at Randall Knife or the awards performance of Dublin Blues, you have no heart. Greatly missed.
