Back in 1987, when I first got a CD player, I bought a Ryko Disk sampler CD for very cheap that included this song by the then unknown Texas singer/songwriter Nanci Griffith. It took a few listens but I began to love the song. So I tracked down more music from her. Nanci has fallen into the is it folk, country, pop, or what trap and thus has never become truly famous. Musicians love her though as she has collaborated with such acts as Counting Crows, Hootie and the Blowfish, REM, Emmylou Harris, John Prine, etc. If you like this, look up some of her old stuff. Its very nice.
Musings and music from Dan. Life as a husband, dad, music and sports fan, and whatever it is that I do to make a living. Check out DanPop radio (to your right). Great Music.
