50th ANNIVERSARY of HEARTWORN HIGHWAYS

Packed with incredible performances by what is now a who’s who of America’s greatest singer-songwriters, “Heartworn Highways” is a likewise legendary account of 1970s Outlaw Country and beyond, celebrating an array of artists that include Guy Clark, David Allan Coe, Steve Earle, Townes Van Zandt and Rodney Crowell, as the camera rambles between Tennessee and Texas. Director James Szalapski made the film in 1975/6 but it sat unreleased until 1981. Now it abides as a vital time capsule of American music.
