  • ELH b. April 2, 1947 in Birmingham, AL While performing in a Washington D.C. coffeehouse, she was discovered by former Byrds member Chris Hillman, who recommended her to Gram Parsons for his first solo album, 'GP'. Harris toured as a member of Parsons' band, The Flying Burrito Brothers, in 1973, and recorded on their album 'Grievous Angel'. After Parsons died of overdose in Sept. 1973, Harris was devastated and wrote her most well-known song 'Boulder to Birmingham'.

  • top 20 duet sll time?Nobody remebers Parsons.

  • Comment removed

  • Loved her for 37 years now

  • @timwint01 She die?

  • With all due respects to Graham, Emmylou makes anyone sound wonderful. She can harmonize or take the lead vocals, but the talent can't be denied.

  • Oh, the irony.

  • this was the first song I ever sang at an open mic night, in Dallas, Texas. Lower Greenville Avenue...miss those days sometimes...

  • Great version, probably the best, Canadian, Neil Flanz really makes a difference with the Pedal Steel Guitar

  • @oletomhiggins Couldn't agree more. And the pedal steel is exceptionally well played! What a loss it was for us all that Gram passed away so young...

  • Ultimately what really matters is a courageous spirit and a generous heart.

  • How can I hurt bad if I never loved anyone or been loved by anyone.That will never happen. Love is a four letter word,that really means Hurt. I don`t love so I don`t hurt.

  • @redscorcher Yes some how I understand....Focus on everything else.......be good at what you do.....you will find love in that...It is not what really is...it's only our personal view of it...It changes from day to day

  • @redscorcher Simon & Garfunkel, "I am a Rock", 1965. You're not alone. It's a big world, but we're all related. Someone's waiting and searching for you. Hang tough.

  • Just beautiful

  • To avoid getting hurt by love is to never fall in love. Someone wrote: It is better to love, then to never love at all, I disagree with that. I say It is better not to love then to be hurt.

  • @redscorcher That is the saddest thing I have ever read... You must really hurt bad

  • Very pretty song.

  • Does (can) anyone harmonize like these two?

    Touches the depths of my soul. Thanks.

    (Love doesn't have to hurt, if both parties are selfless.)

  • great

  • Such a sweet combination of talents. Wonderful performance.

  • Love hurts. Thats really all we need to remember. Cant think of when it didnt hurt. Doesnt matter if it was me & a fella or me trying to care for family. Its a pain. And learning is the most important thing. But do we ever learn? Its not meant to be complete joy. I dont think so. But at least Ive tried. So many of us have. Love ya Gram ♥ Honesty is the best policy. Love to ZB and KC and DC and MC

  • Gotta love it!!! Another goodbye to another good friend!!!!!

  • Nobody ever sang this song with this much emotion.

  • they are  awesome my most favorite song for ever

  • love is like that as they know. thanks both of you

  • first time i heard this i fell in love with them that was in 75

  • @slimbo159 Same here. I bought Grievous Angel in 1975.

  • no-one does this song like Gram and Emmylou

  • Brilliant

  • Great cover of a great song!
