Explored! Thank you very much :-) This is the Octagon Lake with Stowe House in the background. The Lake kinda divides parts of the garden and I figure a tenuous link for 'Sight and Sound' would be "Across the Great Divide" by Nanci Griffith and Emmylou Harris :-) This song was written Kate Wolf.

MACRO MONDAYS 2.0 TOPIC 124: BOTTLE NECK/BOTTLE NECKS It wasn't too difficult to find some bottles 'cos we do have a glass of wine with a meal. Well, okay, with most meals :-) And, using the draining board as a backdrop.......again :-) Also, for 'Sight and Sound' I have chosen one of my faves. That is "Two More Bottles of Wine" by Emmylou Harris. The song was written by Delbert McClinton and features on Emmylou's 1978 album "Quarter Moon in a Ten Cent Town".

Colourful buildings in High Street, Oxford. There is clearly a jewellers shop in my photo. For 'Sight and Sound' I have, therefore, chosen "Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend" by Emmylou Harris :-) Added to Sight and Sound : Pictures & Music ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ Listen here ~ Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend ~ Emmylou Harris ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ Or, Listen here ~ Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend ~ Emmylou Harris

Explored! Thank you very much :-) Time to fish out the Soft Focus software filter methinks :-) I'm not sure if these peeps are 'Together' :-) But, if they are it reminds me of "Together Again" by Emmylou Harris. One of my all-time faves :-) Emmylou accompanied by the legendary 'Hot Band' .....Albert Lee, Hank DeVito, Rodney Crowell, Glen D Hardin, John Ware and Emory Gordy.

"Boulder to Birmingham" was written by Emmylou Harris and Bill Danoff and features on Emmy's 1975 album "Pieces of the Sky". Bill Danoff was married to Taffy Nivert and together with John Denver they wrote "Take Me Home Country Roads". Bill Danoff & Taffy NIvert were also members of the Starland Vocal Band and they recorded "Boulder to Birmingham" as well. I hope you are following me thus far :-) My photo was taken in the grounds of Nuffield College in Oxford. "Boulder to Birmingham" is one of my all-time favourite tracks by Emmylou and as there is a 'Boulder' in my photo I think this should be my 'Sight and Sound' link :-) I also found, on YouTube, a 1977 live performance of "Boulder to Birmingham" by the Starland Vocal Band so a link to this is included :-) I'll stop now :-) Added to ~ Sight and Sound : Pictures & Music ♫ ♪ ♪ ♫ Listen here ~ Boulder to Birmingham ~ Emmylou Harris ♫ ♪ ♪ ♫ Listen here ~ Boulder to Birmingham ~ Starland Vocal Band

I thought I had already posted this very old photo to ipernity but if I did I can't find it anywhere :-) So, as the water here is fairly still I am goin' to link this photo to one of my fave Emmylou Harris tracks and that is "Beneath Still Waters" written by Dallas Frazier and from Emmy's 1979 album "Blue Kentucky Girl":-) Accompanied by The Hot Band ~ Electric Guitar: James Burton Pedal Steel: Hank DeVito Piano: Glen D Hardin Acoustic Guitar: Albert Lee High Strung Guitar: Rodney Crowell Bass: Emory Gordy Drums: John Ware Added to ~ Sight and Sound : Pictures & Music ♫ ♪ ♪ ♫ Listen here ~ Beneath Still Waters ~ Emmylou Harris OR Here ♫ ♪ ♪ ♫ ~ Beneath Still Waters ~ Emmylou Harris

Previously I have used a very similar shot to this one. That one had quite a few birds flying around :-) This one I am linking, pretty tenuously, to "Song For The Life" written and performed by Rodney Crowell 'cos there is a line in the song that says "For a sound like the sun going down" :-) Somehow I learned how to listen For a sound like the sun going down In the magic that morning is bringing There's a song for the friends I have found To keep my feet on the ground Way back in the 70's we were fortunate enough to see several 'Emmylou Harris & The Hot Band' concerts when Rodney and Albert Lee played in The Hot Band. And, since the 70's we have seen Albert very many times as part of Albert Lee & Hogan's Heroes. Many moons ago we did have tickets to see Hal Ketchum but, sadly, the concert was cancelled when Hal was taken ill and was later diagnosed with a very serious illness whereby he lost the use of the left side of his body. Unfortunately, we never got to see Carlene Carter in concert. Added to ~ Sight and Sound ♫ ♪ ♪ ♫ Listen here ~ Song For The Life ~ Rodney Crowell p.s. maybe view on black :-)

I have been wanting to find a shot that includes a 'yellow coat' to link to "Yellow Coat" by Steve Goodman. One of my very, very favourite songs by Steve. This shot of tourists at The Bodleian Library in Oxford is about the closest I am goin' to find...methinks :-) Added to ~ Sight and Sound ♫ ♪ ♪ ♫ Listen here ~ Yellow Coat ~ Steve Goodman In the Biography "Steve Goodman: Facing The Music" by Clay Eals, Clay asked Emmylou Harris for a quote about Steve. Emmylou said "There are a lot of great people out there that are not household names, and you know what? It's not a bad thing. Someone like Steve really touched you in a way that music is supposed to touch you, and the people who are fans of Steve Goodman will be fans till death. That's really the best success you could have as an artist". So, I think it is very fitting that I include Emmylou's live version of "Yellow Coat". ♫ ♪ ♪ ♫ Listen here ~ Yellow Coat ~ Emmylou Harris

Explored! ~ Thank you very much :-))) For ages and ages I have been trying to come up with some pictures of wheels to link to "Wheels" written by Gram Parsons and Chris Hillman. This is the best I can do :-)) "Wheels" is one of my all-time fave songs and, for me, the two best versions are by the Flying Burrito Brothers and Emmylou Harris.

Okay.....here comes one of my slightly tenuous links for 'Sight and Sound' :-) To me it looks like the young lady on the bicycle is 'racing' the two peeps in the background to see who can be the first to reach the 'King's Arms' Public House :-) Therefore, this links to the legendary "Racing in the Street" by Bruce Springsteen. Now, I know I should use the original version by The Boss :-) But, quite simply, I absolutely love the version by Emmylou Harris from her 1982 "Last Date" album. However, I have put in a second link to Bruce's original and awesome version :-)) Added to ~ Sight and Sound Listen here ♫ ♪ ♪ ♫ ~ Racing in the Street ~ Emmylou Harris & The Hot Band Original version (Live in Houston 1978) - ♪ ♫ ~ Racing in the Street ~ The Boss

~ Explored! ~ Thank you very much :-))) I have no idea if this is the correct colour of a 'San Antone Rose' :-)) But, no matter, I am linking this to "I'll Be Your San Antone Rose" by Emmylou Harris & The Hot Band. A performance on the Old Grey Whistle Test. Ah, memories, memories, memories of seeing Emmy several times in concert. Must have been the late 70's I guess :-) I even made myself an Emmylou Harris coffee table :-))) The Hot Band - Albert Lee................Lead Guitar Rodney Crowell......Guitar, Vocals Emory Gordy...........Bass, Vocals Hank De Vito...........Pedal Steel Guitar Glen D Hardin.........Piano John Ware..............Drums Added to ~ Sight and Sound Listen here ♫ ♪ ♪ ♫ ~ I'll Be Your San Antone Rose ~ Emmylou Harris & The Hot Band Another performance from German tele I guess :-) ♪ ♫ ~ I'll Be Your San Antone Rose ~ Emmylou Harris & The Hot Band p.s. there was a lot of messing 'bout in Gimp Photo Software :-)
