  • This was recorded for the BBC programme Transatlantic Sessions, A series of about 8 programmes, of which I have about 6 on tape. It was hinted at the end of the series that there would be another series, Not So unfortunatly. It was a brilliant series.

  • You must have missed TS2 (7 progs, 1998). Samples aren't too hard to find on yootoob. Material for a potential TS3 was recorded this spring.

  • What is the origin of this video? Do you know the date, place or any other information?

  • See description. I can add:

    Place: Ayrshire, Scotland.

    Date of footage: might be as early as Nov 1994.

  • wouldn't you just wish you were sitting in that very same room?

  • I had never heard this song before.

    Two comments:

    (1) Goddammit I have never heard this song before, and

    (2) Emmylou Harris has just an otherworldly voice for harmonies. Truthfully I am not a huge fan of her voice as a lead singer, but I don't know of another voice that blends and supports better for harmonies.

  • @rdvqc 15 years ago, ya know.

    As a new fan of Emmylou's , I had to agree that I felt the same way about her being better with harmonies . But if you listen to Pieces of the Sky , I believe it was her first album , that version of Boulder to Birmingham and Too Far Gone are some of the most beautiful vocals I have ever heard - those songs won me over as a fan of Emmylou's.

  • It´s a very, very wonderful song - I love it so much

  • You can't miss Jerry's touch on the Dobro. Sure looks young here though.

  • Glorious music

  • Shows just what kind of person Emmylou is.

    She doesn't have to sing back-up for anybody.

  • Please, please, please bring out "Pronto Monto" on CD, now is the time..!

  • I love Mary Black so much - just saw her in Sydney, Australia on St. Paddy's Day and she was awesome!!
