Emmy Lou and the Northern Lights


From the premature to the retrograde: hearing Emmy Lou Harris sing “If I Could Only Win Your Love” today at the Lincoln Center Tower was to return to Northern California 1975 the time and place that was the site of Nude Gay Beaches on the Russian River, Champagne brunches that followed rough riding Tequila soaked Saturday nights , relatively safe sex and the sounds of what was then Cool Country, mostly from Emmy Lou and the Outlaws, viz. Waylon, Tompall, Willie, Jesse Colter and Dianne “Mountain Mama” Davidson. The skies and the music were more than just the background and the soundtrack, often they were the goal of creative fun.
