This seems appropriate (sorry if already posted). I like Chris Stapleton and also a lot of his stuff from his earlier band the Steeldrivers. This is “What are you listening to”:

A Steeldrivers classic, Where Rainbows Never Die:

This one’s kind of poignant because it’s a true story about his dad. He balances the issues pretty well. “Keep The Wolves Away” by Uncle Lucius. Or maybe I just like the whistling…

And this one seems more and more appropriate as we go along… Colby Acuff and “If I Were The Devil”.

Glad you posted the Linda Ronstadt cover of “Silver Threads and Golden Needles”. That’s the version I remember playing a lot in my teens. Such a gorgeous voice.

Here’s another favorite of mine. She and Karen Carpenter had pure voices. No autotune needed.

We’re in awe of her repertoire’s range. We saw her only once live; on Broadway and at eye level to boot. As much as the early rock and country covers and Nelson Riddle excursions leave lasting impressions, this takes the cake:

These were new to me. I can only hope there’s more hidden gems out there.
