That's nice to hear, Beer. Whispering Pines is one that slipped through the net for me, I wasn't familiar with it until I heard someone sing it a few years back. This Iris Dement cover version was apparently used in The Horse Whisperer and contains some lovely guitar and mandolin work. Written by Howard Crockett it was a B side for Johnny Horton, the "Honky Tonk Man" guy, in 1958. That got me thinking about another beautiful song also named Whispering Pines . The Band cut it on their seminal, eponymously named album released in 1969. With music by Richard Manuel and lyrics by Robbie Robertson it's sung here by Doug Paisley with accompaniment by The Band's keyboard genius, Garth Hudson.
