Any Emmylou Harris fans here?
 
I just recently started listening to her music (well a few months ago) and now I'm totally hooked. My favs song so far is Boulder to Birmingham

I was considering checking her out, but the more I listened to I'm Wide Awake Its Morning the more I realized how terrible of a vocalist she was so I never bothered.

She's like a songbird.

This.

...and that says alot because Conor Oberst can't carry a tune to save his life, and he totally pisses on her voice.

Have you actually listened to previous work?

I've heard a few songs from Brand New Dance and Stumble Into Grace, nothing jumps out as extraordinary to me so, yea.. not a fan.
