What song is your fav.Emmylou cut???

I got into E* from listening to her first big studio album. My son bought this and we traded---I can't remember what I gave??,maybe 2 albums to be named later?? Just about every cut is my one of my favs.--"Boulders to Birmingham"-Then we have "Tulsa Queen" off q/moon 10-cent town.--That is my pick;what's yours?

I love em all but I am really taken by her recent album with Mark Knopfler, All The Roadrunning. Just a great collection of tunes, wonderfully arranged, great production. The interplay between the two of them is terrific - try the title track, or my favorites This Is Us and If This Is Goodby.

It feels like they are soulmates - one can only wonder at what the back story might be.

BTW the live CD/DVD is enjoyable (I have always found her easy to look at) but not up to the studio album IMHO

You got to check out EmmyLou singing Amazing Grace with Ladysmith Black Mambazo on their Long Walk To Freedom album. Chilling - and a wonderful recording.
