A better song about longing and memories would be hard to find. This was the song that brought me to them in the 70's.

Thios beautiful song always leaves me tearful, tough old salt that I am, but this rendering, with its air of family gathering, and Kate's passing, leaves nme speechless.

Mmm! This always ends too soon...

I couldn't agree more, protoville. Absolutely perfect, one of the most beautiful songs ever recorded......

This beauty is so unique it defies any kind of musical compartmentalization.

Kate we still miss you so much, but keep your spirit alive and eternal by singing this song....Thank you again for what you gave this world....We will always love you and never forget.

First saw them at Mariposa in 1974 and fell in love with the sisters. 37 years of their music just isn't enough. Kate, we'll miss you.

must be : years and not tears, sorry.

I've got the Transatlantic sessions after so much tears in my home.
What a great collection of pure music!
This song has incredible meaning for me. I first heard it ona tape of the 1975 Mariposa Folk Festival. In 1979, deep in the night of Oct 14, I had it playing at the moment of my fathers death. He was in Mendocino only once, but it had a special hold on him. I later founded Mendocino Public Broadcasting, and this song made it to the first broadcast of KZYX on Oct 15, 1989. It is such a special work, by an incomprable artist. I will miss you Kate. Thanks for your life.

Feel so moved again - these voices - these gathered musicians - since the early 70ies this song was one of my guidelines in life - in beauty. Bye... dear Kathie! (R from amsterdam)
