A story, and I'll try to make it quick. Late 67, early 68, Townes and I were playing the same coffee house in San Antonio. He was doing Tecumseh Valley every night. When I got transferred to Tacoma, I didn't know the lyrics so i wrote my own. "Wenatchee Valley", I remembered the story and the melody. About six months later I found a TVZ album (Our Mother The Mountain [still my fav]) and learned hislyrics. Don't know what happened to mine but they weren't nearly as good as his. Tecumseh Valley was the first song of his that I learned.
