I remember seeing her (first ever?) gig in London in 1975 or '76 where they played this great version of the superb Smokey Robinson song. With James Burton and the Elvis band backing the great Emmylou there were a lot of old British "Teddy Boys" and "Rockers" in the audience who were there for James and the band... but the atmosphere was great and everyone went ape for the whole glorious package. Great, great days.
Hard to imagine I have been an ELH fan since the early seventies..I can't describe what this fantasic voice does to me. What a beautiful lady and human being. Thanks much for this rare item.
A very convincing version of this. On an album perhaps- not heard it there.

Wow! I had no idea sweet Emmylou once did songs like this! And a real decent job on it, too.
