She is truly a natural voice of melancholy. I share this so maybe you will like her work if you are a Blue Grass lover and country music fan. She's the best.<br />
<br />
It reminds me of the time place and people Vicki Lane writes about in her Appalachian mystery novels, the changes that are taking place in those sacred hills I grew up in and bring back so many memories. Pick up one of her novels and you will be engrossed immediately<br />

I did not know him or of him but he was a journalist and author of some renown. His most famous work: "SOUTHERN FOOD" is a combination of southern cooking recipes and social history. I have not read it but will order and do so. Another book "SPEAK NOW AGAINST THE DAY" is about southerners who spoke out against racial status quo before it was a national issue.</span><br />

It was about music called Americana. A blend or amalgamation of country, bluegrass, some rock, folk, blues. Really good and the players were by in large young. Emmylou Harris started this years ago. Jerry Douglas was there. He's the dobro player that can take your breath away. He played with Union Station and did some work with Allison Krauss (my all time favorite country female singer).<br />
