Been listening to this quite a bit recently too, love the little rasp in her voice

 

[North Carolina Supporter]

For me, there are no better lyrics than John Prine’s Spanish Pipedream… here they are:

She was a level-headed dancer
On the road to alcohol
And I was just a soldier on my way to Montreal
Well, she pressed her chest against me
About the time the juke box broke
Yeah, she give me a peck
On the back of the neck
And these are the words she spoke
"Blow up your TV
Throw away your paper
Go to the country
Build you a home
Plant a little garden
Eat a lot of peaches
Try an' find Jesus on your own"
Well, I sat there at the table
And I acted real naive
For I knew that topless lady
Had something up her sleeve
Well, she danced around the bar room
And she did the hoochie-coo
Yeah, she sang her song all night long
Tellin' me what to do
"Blow up your TV
Throw away your paper
Go to the country
Build you a home
Plant a little garden
Eat a lot of peaches
Try an' find Jesus on your own"
Well, I was young and hungry
And about to leave that place
When just as I was leavin'
Well, she looked me in the face
I said, "You must know the answer"
She said, "No, but I'll give it a try"
And to this very day, we've been livin' our way
Here is the reason why
We blew up our TV
Threw away our paper
Went to the country
Built us a home
Had a lot of children
Fed 'em on peaches
They all found Jesus on their own

Tulsa Queen - a young Emmylou Harris.

Tulsa Queen - a young Emmylou Harris.

For you - anything by Emmylou is always welcome imo

 

[Adders1]

There really is no comparison for me

Every which but Loose - Eddie Rabbit

 

[OzMike]

Never heard of him, can he play guitar?

He was the singer for Cold Chisel before going solo, utter gash, but they are mad for him here.
As soon as a song from him comes on the radio, it goes off or to another channel.
Just can't do it, maybe it's me.

Magnificent

She has sung so many brilliant duets I could post several but this is one of my favourites - with Mark Knopfler - on a song he wrote after 9/11

Garth Brooks launched a country radio station on Tunein Radio. Aims to play the greats and give exposure to up and coming new acts. (I don't know if he hosts any shows, or how much control he has, or if he has just lent his name to the promotion of it).

The BIG 615 - From the mind of Garth Brooks: Country Music is THE BIG 615. Country music is the voice of everyday life, no matter who you are or where you’re from. It relates, shares, and empathizes - and Garth Brooks is bringing a new take on country music to...

I think tunein works kinda like most free streaming - there's a premium option for ad-free access, or free comes with adverts.

I may well have posted this before but seeing them posted on another thread reminded me. A country legend and one of the top female country voices of recent years - this IS a country song! Brilliant!

When Tommy turned around they said, "Hey look! Old Yellow's leaving"
But you could've heard a pin drop when Tommy stopped and locked the door...
