Thread Name: Review: Red Dirt Girl (Emmylou Harris)
Subject: RE: Emmylou, Red Dirt Girl?
I'm refreshing this thread because I finally got this CD and am absolutely in love with it. I don't know what's not to love. The songwriting, most of it, is topnotch, and the melodies are scrumptious. She's a long, long way from her bluegrass roots, but artists get to go where they need to go, far as I'm concerned.

Several of the songs have "got their hooks in me," as rangerroger says above, and just won't let go. I'd love to learn "Hour of Gold" and "My Baby Needs a Shepherd" and "Michelangelo," if anyone has the chords for them. (I have the lyrics from the CD cover.YUMMY!!!)
