I have only seen Patti perform live once but it was a killer. I did not buy her last two releases even though the cover CD got great reviews, I might need to pick that up.
Of her later work, there is one that was so outstanding but I cant recall the title now...its the one that has "The Southern Cross" (I think thats the title)on it...the CD was all about her late husband and it was a gorgeous release. ON EDIT: The CD is called GONE AGAIN. Im putting it on now...rbs

Anyway, much love for Patti over here in Texas!

She's truly one of the most inspiring people I've come across. She's so tiny, but she commands such a great presence, even if she's just standing in one spot. Everything she says is with such conviction and fervor that you believe it simply because she believes it, and she makes you feel like you really can make a difference in the world. And she's so funny and adorable, too.

"Gone Again" is probably my favorite album of hers, followed very closely by "Horses," but there's so much great stuff buried in her catalog that it's hard to say for sure.

And that's why I'd want to hang out with her for dinner. I'm a total Patti windchild.
