Linda is only a year younger than I am. But as with my sister... looks a lot younger. Harris and my sis are the same age.

 

Sheesh. Howcome they look so much younger? %#%#%#@$!@$!@#$%#^@$

Milo, it's not the model year of the car: it's the amount and type of mileage on the odometer. It's OK. Emmylou is just a couple of months younger than me, but looks a whole lot better. 1947 was a good model year, especially for guitars and girl singers.

Who wouldn't like those two singing together?

 

Emmylou is one of the all-time consummate musicians/singers out there...and Linda..... oh my..... what a voice!

 

My brother and I saw Linda in concert back in about 1975/1976. Sat in the first row.... took some photos...and my brother drew this with a pencil and gave it to me for my birthday way back then:

Wow!!! The guy has talent.

Yup on '47 being a good model year. And for what it's worth, if my sis weren't in Texas, I'd force her into singing with me as we did when we were kids and teens. She's pretty good.

 

As for the drawing... a "wow" for that, too.

Yeah....but he's kinda weird...but in a good way!

 

I should give it back to him and have him "colorize" it like he did his pencil drawing of Neil Young.

(you'll note that he had Neil sign it)

Linda is my all time favorite female singer and Emmylou could sing harmony to a chain saw. If you threw in Alison Krauss, you'd have a trio that would sing like the soundtrack to Heaven.

I hear that Emmylou, Lucinda Williams and Patty Griffin sang together at Neil Young's Music Cares tribute concert--now that's the trio I'd give anything to hear.

 

But for now, we have some fabulous combinations:

Emmylou singing the low line (and going for 'dress" where the others opted for "shoes"--a rare if minor flub.)

 

And here is another fine noise, too!!

Lovelly, the more I play my J-150 the more I realise just what a brilliant strummer the Gibson Jumbo is. Just perfect.

 

Maybe that's why you can't swing a dead cat without hitting a C&W singer strumming one!
