Sing Me Back Home - Suzy Bogguss with Garrison Keillor

[Kush]

Suzy Bogguss was one of my favorite female country singers in college in the late 80s and 90s (along with Kathy Mattea) and just a terrific person as well. She released an album of Merle Haggard songs last year...

Suzy Bogguss had a string of country hits in the early 90s but faded somewhat after that and also took a break for a few years. These days she travels around with an eclectic roots/jazz/swing band that in my opinion is one of the best small band combos going around...hope to see them live later this year.

Marianne Faithfull did a cover of Sing Me Back Home on her album Easy Come, Easy Go. Keith Richards played and sang on it. There's a youtube version which Marianne dedicates to Amy Winehouse.

I feel nostalgic for the Country ladies of the late 80s and 90s....good times!
