    This is the definition of perfection. When the music and the singing are perfect, you don't need weird gimmicks.

      Definitely agree, no gimmicks just two superb artistes, on a stage with an excellent band, no silly lighting or pyrotechnics. Perfection can not be bettered, youngsters take note and learn.

    On our drives to radiation treatment, I'd play music for Dad. This is the last song he heard. His brain was increasingly tattered by chemo-induced delirium. But he absentmindedly commented, "That's a really nice song. Really beautiful." I squeezed his hand and told him, "Yeah, Dad. It's your Emmylou." The song was on his funeral mix. How appropriate.
