tomcy6, we clearly share tastes; I love Coal, and Pretty Bird. I, again, was so surprised with just how fantastic she was live. Long ago I lived in Nashville, a friend of mine was a struggling song writer then (became very very successful), and there was a benefit for a local songwriter/artist, my friend allowed me to go along with him, and there was a silent auction. I managed to get a Statler Brothers signed LP, and Kathy was there, working the "register", and I have the receipt with her name on it. This was sometime between 1980 and 1983.
Karla Bonoff
Greetings,
I, like many here, watched and loved the Linda Ronstadt documentary; in that film there were brief interview pieces with Karla Bonoff, and those caused me to search a bit (I have one or two recordings of hers), and discovered she made a new recording in 2018 titled Carry Me Home. I ordered copy from her, it came yesterday (I was away), am playing it here this morning, and its just wonderful. Great songs, sparse production (piano, guitar, occasionally bass, mandolin) and, to my ears, great sound. Highly worth a listen.
