Welcome to the Ballad of Sally Rose
Okay, here's the maiden voyage.
I have created this BLOG because I am absolutely obsessed with Emmylou Harris. The poor woman would be mortified to know that someone spends so much time, effort and money on ALL things Emmylou. So, I am going to use this forum to organize these obsessions into a cogent presentation; sort of like a virtual doll house where Emmy is the star and I get to come over and borrow a cup of sugar. You know Mary and Rhoda type of thing. Of course this is mostly for myself but others may enjoy bits and pieces of it.
The main tasks will be personal reviews of all of Emmy's records, a history of the times where I have gotten to see her perform live, a catalog of my Emmy memorabilia, and maybe a little (emphasis on little) bit of other complimentary musicians (Dolly, Linda, Patty, Gillian etc.)
Maye two or three sentences about myself will help everyone know that I am just a harmless middle aged fan and not some stalker. I live in Vermont, I am 39 years old, my biggest pass time is music (listening, playing, reading about (MOJO rocks!), going to live shows (Sweet Harmony Traveling review rocked! especially when Emmy & Buddy sang Dylan's "Oh, Sister" in VT), and collecting. I work in higher education as a university administrator, and teach part time at a community college. I am finising my doctorate to boot. I am relatively boring on most fronts so this whole blogger thing may be some sort of weird extension of by boring nature. I have a fantasy of writing a novel about an alienated office worker who is searching for spiritual meaing in the bureacratic workplace when the real world all around him is overlooked. Sorta Kafka-Woody Allenesque thing. That it is far too much about me.
Okay, so stay tuned...first up will be a review of "Pieces of the Sky".
