What song is your fav.Emmylou cut???

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?

Oh yeah her duets with Gram bring tears and shivers==esp Love Hurts. But lately my fave cut is Bang the Drum Slowly about burying her father in Arlington Cemetery as I did in 2000. Her version of Neil Young's Wrecking Ball is incredible also, if you have anything to regret. I really love the whole album REd Dirt Girl, for recent stuff. Old stuff, Leavin' Louisiana in the Broad Daylight brings back the college memories.

Don't have a favororite as I like lots of her stuff, but I often listen to Gram Parsons "Grievous Angel" album on which she performs.
