Anyway
Stanton's road-hardened screen persona had more in common with veteran rock outlaws like Keith Richards or Johnny Cash than most of his Hollywood peers. A friend of Bob Dylan and Kris Kristofferson, he partied with the Laurel Canyon hippie-rock crowd in the 1960s and 1970s. He once aspired to be professional singer himself, but eventually "surrendered" to acting. A lifelong chain-smoker and late-night drinker, he was still performing in LA bars with his Tex-Mex band into his eighties. "Singing and acting are actually very similar things," he told the Observer in 2013. "Anyone can sing and anyone can be a film actor. All you have to do is learn."

the "Ayes" have it. Here's looking at you Bud.
Harry Dean Stanton left a huge dent in the American landscape with just a handful of starring roles, dozens of memorable cameos and an alluring Zen Cowboy attitude that struck a universal chord far beyond his own screen fame. In later life, when strangers recognized him but could not quite place his face, he would tell them he was a retired astronaut.

Agreed that Paris, Texas is a great movie. Also, Harry Dean Stanton's rendition of Cancion Mixteca is beautiful.
