[psychoflee]

i used to play carmen sandiego and heard one of her awesome songs, then came across this other awesome song.. beautiful music

[KnitsWithDogz]

OMG; what rock have I been living under?. I have just discovered her and am blown away! Thank you for this beautiful video. Where were the slides shot?

[skepticalinquier]

Love, this Mary performed this one years ago at a radio station I worked for. WDEV in Watrebury, Vt. She had side kick Jim Ringer with her.

Brings tears to my eyes. Love it.

Just Pure Pleasure ! Mary McCaslin You Send Me .. in my minds eye back to Wyoming.. I Love You !

I'm not sure Mary had an equal in the music business. Her voice is magnificent and one of a kind. Thank you so much for posting this magnificent song.

I used to listen to her work on KWAV radio when I lived in Monterey, Calif., many years ago. Does anyone have a copy of her version of "Things We Said Today"?

On my top 10 list of Greatest Songs Ever Written! Way Out West and Prairie in the Sky should also be enjoyed as albums though.

LOVE THIS SONG. A DIS JOKEY PLAYED IT ON THE RADIO. SHE DIED. AND STILL REMEMBER THE DAY SHE INTRODUCED TO ME.

[garrufat]

@MrVampiredog

We Assume you meant the Disc Jockey died as Mary is still alive and well performing as she has done for the past 40 years

[MrVampiredog]

@garrufat I was refering to the disjockey who died, not Mary.

[EZnTn1]

@MrVampiredog Wouldn't be too far out on a limb to think you are talking about Laura Ellen Hopper, of KPIG in Santa Cruz, CA.

Laura or LE .. pioneered one of the greatest radio stations in the US, if not the world.

No better radio, no better person ...May Laura Ellen rest in peace

I thank her for introducing me to Mary McCaslin.

[MrVampiredog]

@EZnTn1 NO SHE WAS AT THE COLLEGE STATION IN DELAWARE. UD

[thewickedwoody]

@EZnTn1 amen to that.

[MrVampiredog]

@garrufat YES

The last time I saw Mary McCaslin she was play`n @ her Cath. Church W/ a little Martin 00-17 I think....it was "Beautiful,beautiful Brown eye`s" I think??

[telbridget]

What a lovely suprise, when i stumbled upon this. I found Mary's name on a post it and found this. She has a very clear and strong voice . Pure & melodic. Thanks 4 sharing. Really enjoyed it. x

[oneeyedstar]

This woman Mary McCaslin and her music saved me many a time and I bless her for this..

[folksongwriter]

I love this song. I heard it on the radio for the first time last night. It stopped me in my tracks.

[snazalea]

I've been listening to these songs since I was literally an infant. This song is one that my roommates at music school knew to put on if I was ever horribly sick or despondent. Thanks Mary, your songs mean a lot.

[abidnessman]

i met Mary in San Diego 1974 at the San Diego Blue Grass Festival. SHe cut her first album around then. I enjoyed her song Young Westley, one for many years I'd hum to myself. Long distant memories of friends long gone.

[Tycho114]

A beautiful song. I heard it on the radio while driving through the Green Mountains in Vermont on a beautiful summer day back in the '90s-- not exactly prairie country, but it fit the mood perfectly, and I went out and bought the album as soon as I got home.

[crazybee1234]

This is one of my all time favorite songs. It paints such a beautiful picture. Thanks for putting it together with the pictures.

[sgpnc]

Thanks, G. I love your wife's music. Thanks for putting it out there for us all to appreciate.

[Soulnik]

I love this song and so many others from her ♫♫♫♫♫

Mary is a monumental talent. I've seen her live many a time.

[JonathanG]

This lady is one of a kind. Talent? Forget about it. While all these other dim witted talentless so and so's come and go, Mary M. and a very few others will always shine on.

[JamillaJ]

Isn't this a copyright violation? Using her music to your slides? Youtube has removed all of my slideshows with someone elses music....

[garrufat]

Mary's my wife and it's her song. Gretchen Peters okayed my slides to her version of the song also.Thanks for your CONCERN

[392hemia100]

Used to watch Mary and Jim Rnger play the old Catalyst bar in S'Cruz for tips- Great combo. One song of hers I haven't been able to locate on YTube is 'California Zephyr,' one of her very best IMO. Anyone have an idea if it's here?

-Thanks

[rod1148]

Mary McCaslin did a wonderful called "Old Friends" Would anyone happen to have that?

[bulbheadmyass]

Hi Greg. This is a beautiful video, love the music and the slide show was perfect with it.

Why the hell is Mary not more widely recognized? She was (is) one of the absolute best, so there.

@JonathanG Those of us with that special spot in our hearts for Mary McCaslin may be few in number, but we're passionate!

[gordonemoore]

I think Ms. McCaslin is terrific. I wish someone would make videos of 'Strawberry Roan', which is actually a great motorcycle song, and 'The Bramble And The Rose' with Jim Ringer. I wore out two vinyl copies of that one.
