Emmylou Harris’ voice is as soothing as light summer rain dancing softly off the lilies in a Monet Pond. Peace and grace personified.

Most prefer her mostly country 1975 album ‘Pieces of the Sky’, but I find that her 1977 album, ‘Luxury Liner‘, is a more complete representation of her genius as an interpreter of songs across the genres of country, rock, pop, and her masterful blending of all three.
