27 comments | Blaze Foley was the duct tape-covered troubadour of Texas—gritty, soulful, and gone too soon. Known for writing raw gems like “If I Could Only Fly” and “Clay Pigeons,” he lived on the edge of the Austin scene, close to Townes Van Zandt and closer to trouble. Shot and killed in 1989 at 39, his legend only grew. A folk outlaw whose songs outlived the chaos.
