Okay, so I need some help making a "Best of Emmylou" cd for the long drive to Atlanta. But since I am young and uncultured, I am not familiar with much of her stuff. I like everthing that I've heard, but I want to make a cd of some things that she and EC may do at the concert. Any idea on what songs to get?
All ideas will be greatly appreciated

Well, I don't know what to tell you about songs they may do at the show, but you won't ever go wrong buying her gorgeous album Wrecking Ball. A masterpiece all 'round, from her otherworldly voice to Daniel Lanois' shimmering production. One of my favourite albums of all time.
I think you'd better hold your tongue — although you never were that strong.
She has a new best of coming out soon on Rhino

echos myron like a siren
with endurance like the liberty bell
and he tells you of the dreamers
but he's cracked up like the road
and he'd like to lift us up, but we're a very heavy load
