Album
For the Sake of the Song is the debut album by country singersongwriter Townes Van Zandt, released in 1968. The majority of the songs, including the title track, Tecumseh Valley, Quicksilver Daydreams of Maria, Waitin' Around to Die, and Sad Cinderella, were re-recorded in more stripped-down versions for subsequent studio albums. For the Sake of the Song would be the flagship release on Poppy Records, a label operated by Keven Eggers, with whom Van Zandt would have a long and complex.

What does she want me to do She says that she knows That moments are rare I suppose that it's true Then on she goes to say I don't care Aw, she knows that I do. Maybe she just has to sing for the sake of the song Who do I think that I am to decide that she's wrong She'd like to think I was cruel But she knows that's a lie for I would be No more than a tool If I allowed her to cry all over me Ah my sorrow is real Even though I can't change my plans If she could see how I feel Then I know she'd understand. Ah does she actually think I'. Townes Van Zandt wrote songs with an uncommon grace and poetic clarity, and he sang them with a voice that was at once straightforward, eloquent, and mindful of the arid beauty of his images. A decade after Van Zandt released his first album, there would be dozens of singersongwriters following his example, but he was a rather unusual commodity when For the Sake of the Song was released in 1968, and the album's production and arrangements occasionally suggest that Jack Clement and Jim Malloy didn't always know what to make of what he brought. In spite of the occasionally misguided production, For the Sake of the Song remains a classic debut. For The Sake Of The Song - Original - Townes Van Zandt.
