| | | | | Description : | With the recent death of Paul Haines who provided the lyrics to A Beautiful Western Saddle, it now seems over a decade later as if this was the culmination of...well, of something really special. And for me, this is the best-ever usage of Paul's words (yes, even better than his great work with Carla Bley). This was the last by the classic lineup of Tom Cora, Davey Williams, Ann Rupel, & Pippin Barnett, with the addition of lyrics by noted poet Paul Haines & singing by Amy Denio. This brings the concept of the 'art song' into a whole new light.
