Emmylou


"Cimarron" by Emmylou Harris. Released in 1981. 

For some odd reason, I had this record tucked away in the closet instead of on display with the main collection. Imagine the level of sanity that must have went into this decision.

Incredibly beautiful voice. Still is today!!

There's a beautiful cover of Townes Van Zandt's, "If I Needed You," where the vocals are shared with one of my favorite country music voices, Don Williams. There's also a cover of a longtime favorite Poco song, "Rose of Cimarron." And also a cover of Springsteen's, "The Price You Pay," .... Quite a contrast of two powerful voices between Emmylou's version and that of 'The Boss.'.
