Emmylou Harris, Profile: Best of Emmylou Harris, 1978
This record includes hits from Pieces of the Sky, Elite Hotel, Luxury Liner, and Quarter Moon in a Ten Cent Town. Emmylou Harris has had so many more great hits since this 1978 compilation which would certainly compete with these select hits as her overall best. Her best songs may even be yet to come. I’ve had the pleasure of seeing her twice in concert in the past few years, and she has lost nothing to years!
Emmylou Harris pervades country and folk music. She has also accompanied just about everyone. An amazing harmonizer, I have found her voice soaring among others on several great albums-always a pleasant surprise. She always sounds amazing, even with voices that might be hard to sing along with. The female voice singing duets with Bob Dylan on his album, Desire? Of course. Who else.
