Emmylou Harris – Stumble Into Grace
I rarely share a country album, but because it’s Emmylou Harris, I’m happy to make an exception. She was the most remarkable (and stunningly beautiful) singer of the 1970s in my humble opinion, and though her black locks have gone silver over the years, both the voice and the face Continue Reading
