Comments for Harris, Emmylou, Pieces of the Sky

I also love Emmylou''s version of the Dolly Parton song, "Coat of Many Colors." AND "Too Far Gone." AND "If I Could Only Win Your Love." But the Beatles cover seemed a little gratuitous to me, a nod to people with more of a pop mentality. I thought it was out of keeping with the other material on the album.

Initially something of a "hillbilly Joan Baez" (Emmylou also sang w/Dylan), this was her first "real" album. "Boulder to Birmingham is her beautiful tribute to Gram Parsons and she does an equally great job covering Merle Haggard ("The Bottle Let Me Down") and the Beatles ("For No One").
