That was beautiful. Remembering her life helps with grieving her loss. From her song Gulf Coast Highway: "And when she dies she says she’ll catch some blackbird’s wing, and she will fly away to heaven." Fly away, Nanci. Rest in peace, sweet soul.
Ever since I listened her 'Lone star state of mind' I became a Nanci Griffith fan and I am still there. Apart from being a fantastic song writer-singer, she was an excellent guitarist a fact often overlooked.
I am glad you enjoyed it. I tried to do her memory justice. I hope that you will enjoy more of your likes and earn your subscription to the channel. If you have already subscribed I thank you very much for doing so.
I went to Nashville that September and I was so surprised no one I talked to new who she was or where was interned. Bet they knew in Ireland, her second home. God I miss her.
We should always remember Nanci. Her passing 8/13/2021. (Here PST) still a little less than one year ago. There is just something about Nanci which is special, loving, and different. So I encourage 'y'all to learn and listen a little bit from one of America and Texas super Ladies, Nanci Griffith!
She was born in Seguin (pronounced suh-GEEN, not SEG-win) The folk festival is in Kerrville (pronounced CURR-vill, not CARE-vill), the the song is Late Night Grande (pronounced GRAND, not GRAND-AY....listen to the recording, please) Hotel.
@@CMSProductions It's also "grand," not "grande" hotel. Thanks for this beautiful tribute to one of my favorite artists of all time. She was a treasure!

I knew Eric Taylor in the 70's when he was pining away for her. A stormy relationship. He was a pretty bad alcoholic, although a good songwriter in his own right. I thought she was a little too "precious", a bit too full of herself. But then I also thought Dylan was a bit pretentious. Show's how wrong I can be. (PS - the town in Texas is pronounced "suhgeen".) A great trubute to her. Thanks for posting.
I appreciate the correction on the pronunciation on her hometown. I apologies for the mispronunciation. I will try to do better in the future. I am glad that you enjoyed the posting.
I hadn't realized it, but when you mentioned about her boyfriend John who took her to the prom and then died in a motorcycle accident, I realized that her song "There's a Light Beyond These Woods" is about John and also her best friend, whom she also lost. The song takes on more meaning to me now.
Keep Em Coming ! Nanci Was An " Angel For Sure " . Thanks For Putting Her In There ! By The Way I'm A New Subscriber & This Was My First Listen ! Many Thanks Sir, Stay Well & God Bless !
Thank you for this wonderful video. I had never heard of her until a friend posted a RIP note which included "Love at the Five and Dime" store. I have spent the last week seeking out and listening to her work. Do you know if there is anywhere a person can get a copy of her lyrics book? Her recordings are great but often they are unintelligible. Thanks for any help....
Thank you. I didn’t realize she had passed like so many other great ones. I can only say that her voice was srill. But the Only srill voice that sounded like an Angel. I loved that she had no ego. She cared not what anyone saw in her. She Knew Who she was! She didn’t need anyone to validate her. Like I said, she Knew who she Was without anyones acceptance! What an angel

Correction. I hope that you like more of our videos and if you have suggestion of people you would like to see we always welcome them
I have no idea why but I’ll admit Nancy Griffith has been under my radar all this time but this video has inspired me to dive into her catalog.
@Bob Liberatore Ditto. I had it as a suggestion for a video and decided to do it. My horizons have been enlarged
Better late than never. Lots to explore there! We lost a gem.
@@markw4206 I agree with you that we lost a gem
I went to Nashville that September and I was so surprised no one I talked to new who she was or where was interned. Bet they knew in Ireland, her second home. God I miss her.
We all do
Can't believe she is gone.Just loved her singing voice.and songs
Her music had a real world quality to it. She will truly be missed and is missed
We should always remember Nanci.
Her passing 8/13/2021. (Here PST) still a
little less than one year ago. There is just something
about Nanci which is special, loving, and different. So

I will always love you Nanci Caroline Griffith ❤️😢😢😢 especially on a Blue Moon 🙏🏻

I agree completely
She was born in Seguin (pronounced suh-GEEN, not SEG-win) The folk festival is in Kerrville (pronounced CURR-vill, not CARE-vill), the the song is Late Night Grande (pronounced GRAND, not GRAND-AY....listen to the recording, please) Hotel.
CARE-ville is the proper Scottish pronounciation regardless of how we say the name in the US.
Benge watching today DC epic as always
I try
She was born in Seguin, Tx. pronounced Su-Geen(Sa-geen), Kerrville Folk Festival is pronounced-Kurr Ville
Thanks for letting me Know.

This was my mother’s name. Change the I to a Y. Then last name change the TH to a N. Yep this caught my eye definitely.
Thanks for watching it. I hope you enjoyed the video.

Pronouncing the name of her home
Town correctly would be a good start.
@San Antonio Steve apologies for any mispronunciations
Does anyone know where she was buried or was she cremated? 🙏 please
She is buried by her brother Richard in Ely City Cemetery, Ely, Nevada.
@@CMSProductions nice try
Her brother was Robert and the Nancy in Ely Cemetery died in 1979. The Nanci singer songwriter died in 2021.
@@gregklein547 I went by the news reports i read on her gravesite. I should have checked other sources. Thanks for pointing it out.
👍
Thanks I am glad you liked it

There was a lot of heartache in her life.
She touched my heart. Hard to explain. Never expected that.
true she was a very extraordinary lady. Thank you for watching. If you haven't subscribed I hope to earn it. If you have I thank you.
Narrator sounds like he has no idea who she is and is just reading a script he's just been handed. Awful.
Thank you for your feedback.
She did not know me but she influenced me and the life of so many other people.
I used her music to survive the early 80's.So sad, go well.

She will surely be missed , she was very much loved and admired I hope to hear her in heaven playing for Jesus
I agree with you 100%. I want to thank you for sharing with my audience.
I just moved from Seguin, Tx...nice little town...I wish I new she was from there. It's pronounced Sah Geen. Ty!
Thanks

I am very glad you enjoyed it. As far as the Lyrics Book is concerned I would check Amazon for it. Either there or Ebay..
I miss her so much.
I know what you mean.
I was a fan of her's throughout the 90s and had no idea she was so ill. I really loved her shows and was fortunate to see her 3 times.
sweet. Thank you for watching and thank you for sharing.
Hope you found your light Mary Margaret. Perhaps well meet someday and see what makes it shine. God, my heart is so broken.
Not yet!
SEGUIN is pronouncec sah-geen with a hard G.
Thanks for the correction
