That's right, Patty Loveless. You have probably never heard of her. She is absolutely my country music heroine. Maybe you'll remember this one, it's about getting over a heartbreak.
Here's one that she did with Ricky Skaggs. You know, he's pretty amazing himself.
Here's a couple with duet partner Vince Gill. It was through Patty Loveless that I became a fan of Vince Gill. It seems to me that their voices were made to be blended together.
Here's a few more random videos of Patty's. If you take the time to listen to them all, I'm sure you would become a fan of hers, just like I did. Remember, I warned you it was Patty Loveless day.
Are you still with me? I would say Patty comes from a background that would truly make her recording artist royalty. She's a distant cousin to Loretta Lynn and Crystal Gayle, and she's married to Emory Gordy, Jr. (click on his name for more information). If you would like to know a little more about Patty, click here.
You can rest assured that I am making some progress on my march towards realizing my dream. I've decided I don't want to lift and move heavy furniture, so I contacted a moving company today. The company is owned by my friend, so I'm getting a good deal. I just don't wear myself out when there are strong, professional men that will do this job for me. What can I say, they are professionals, and I am not.
Thank all of you so much for stopping by. I hope I didn't wear you out of the country music, and I also hope Patty has gained some new fans. If you listen to all of them, drop me a note and let me know.

ReplyDeleteWait!!! WHUT??? There are people out there who have never heard of Patty Loveless???? I would have listened to all of them, but my DSL and YouTube weren't co-operating. I added a few to my playlist at playlist.com, since you put me in the mood.
