Snider was a wonderful songwriter. Social commentary, humor, heartfelt character pieces. Quite the range. One of my favorite lines from his debut "A woman like you walks in a place like this, you can almost hear the promises break" https://kleaveburg.blogspot.com/search/label/Todd%20Snider
WTF 😵💫 Just yesterday I was watching his Farm Aid, Christian Conservative... performance for @ the 20th time. He came to my attention maybe 15 years ago as he had caught the attention of Don Imus on WNBC. rob

The closing line is the best!!!
"Pack the van, we're going back to Athens!"
Perfect!
Where has Todd Snider been my whole life? Why didn't I become aware of him until he died?

Just read the circumstances of his death - so sad. I immediately thought of Ray Davies, New Orleans.
