28 Jun 12 - 06:33 PM (#3369263) Subject: Obit: Susanna Clark: songwriter-artist 1939-2012 From: Stilly River Sage Susanna Clark, Songwriter and Artist "Songwriter and artist Susanna Clark died in her sleep Tuesday night or Wednesday morning. She was 73. Born in Atlanta, TX, Clark was probably best known as an artist for one of her paintings, which became the cover image for Willie Nelson's legendary "Stardust" album. She also co-wrote "Easy From Now On," one of Emmylou Harris' better known songs." This turned up on Joe Nick Patoski's facebook feed today. SRS |

Seems to me that she and Guy and Townes van Zandt were the heart of a songwriting revolution back in the day, and we owe all three an enormous debt of gratitude. |

I am away from my record collection at moment , but I can recall many of her song-writing collaborations. Must be very sad for Guy. He has lost his "Coat From The Cold" |

I shall be digging out some old LPs, cassettes and CDs this weekend in honour of a lovely lady. Come From the Heart (co-written with Richard Leigh ?) is a lovely song. Guy was a bit jealous of it, I think, but sang it with great pride and feeling. Dave Illingworth |
