She and Bill Danoff wrote this song in 74 or 75 as an ode to Gram Parsons. I don't think she's over his death yet.

It's been a minute since this thread has been active. I have practically no use for any new music coming out of Trashville or anywhere else besides maybe Texas or Asheville. I have been privy to this lady for some time due to the fact I pretty much only listen to Americana when it comes to new music. She co-wrote this with her band. This is a live unedited version of an incredible song by an equally incredible artist. No electronics, no auto-tune, no music track live instruments, vocals and talent.

Here's another one that was played a lot in '66. We would sing this one on the school bus as well. Our Okinawan bus driver would do the howling.
