This was my first Emmylou album (though it wasn't my last) and it is still my favorite. It takes me back to that heady time when my now-husband and I had just met, and some people we knew had overdosed on heroin and life was big and fast and bold and thoroughly too much, and Emmylou knew how to say it all in one album. We listened to it nonstop and if I put it on now, I could still sing all the words (not that anyone would want me to!). Thanks for the reminder! I'm going to go dig out my CD.

Life’s a journey. Sometimes a peaceful hike in the woods, sometimes a screaming joyride down a dark highway. I’m on a quest to discover my truth by sharing it.
