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?

Eldartford, You must have a different "Producer's Cut" than I have. It is one of the most disappointing discs I have ever purchased--both for song selection and recording quality. I am a big fan of Emmylou but I cannot stand to listen to that disc.
It's impossible to pick a favorite cut but I've always thought she had a particular genius for fitting perfectly into the music of others without ever becoming a 'background' singer. Her "Duets" album is an amazing showcase of that talent.

I'm particularly fond of "Love Hurts" with Gram Parsons, "That Lovin' You Feelin' Again" with Roy Orbison, "We Believe in Happy Endings" with Earl Thomas Conley and, best of all, "Gulf Coast Highway" with Willie Nelson.

She even does a commendable job of making John Denver sound pretty good on "Wild Montana Skies" but I'll have to admit I made a copy of the CD with that one deleted.

The duets is pretty good, she is very good interpreting Townes Van Zandt for example her duet of "If I needed You". Also a lesser known but very good duet is her with Sarah McLachlan doing "Angel" on one of the Lillith Fair discs.
Don_s, I was just about to order the DVDA version of "Producer's Cut," but you took the wind out of my sails. Any others on this?
