Maybe we should throw some credit over to Daniel Lanois while we are all digging this tune.

See now, I hear the name Emmylou Harris and I think horrible whiny steel lap guitars and tedious lyrics.
This however is brilliant.
Which just goes to show.. umm something.. Anyway 8->9

First time hearing this version. Check it out on Spy Boy for a different take.

I agree this is a wonderful sound and moving lyrics, but I had to look them up...I can't discern a thing she is singing; am I the only one? Love it, nonetheless!

Never a voice like Harris, never a producing visionary like Lanois. Together, this song and this album shine like no other! Also check out her cover of the John Prine song. I think Bill regularly plays the Lanois song 'Blackhawk' from this collection.

Saw EmmyLou Harris perform this whole album with Daniel Lanois last summer. Absolutely amazing!

Envyenvyenvy. What a great line-up! I hope if you get the chance to do it again, you'll post pictures and copious comments about the whole event. |

Willie Nelson also does a great cover of Pancho and Lefty... it's a duet with Merle Haggard(?) i think |
