omg - thank you for posting this! i don't know the album, but i love emmylou so much (not to mention patty). have you heard the songs emmylou's done with bright eyes? they're stunning - "nowhere and now," "land locked blues," and one that is escaping my mind at the moment...

i'm going to check this out - thanks again!
