Guy never made it near the level of Bowie, Prince or the Hag, but he wrote some of the most perfect songs I've ever encountered. It's hard to listen to "Desperados Waiting for a Train" or "The Randall Knife" without getting a little misty. Clark was a key influence on songwriters like Lyle Lovett and Robert Earl Keen, and his songs have been covered by the likes of Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, George Strait and many more.

Lost one of the best. I would set and finger-pick desperadoes over and over and over for half a day. LA Freeway is another all time favorite. On and on and on......
