Linda Ronstadt, Emmylou Harris and Dolly Parton – High Sierra
Linda Ronstadt, Emmylou Harris and Dolly Parton – High Sierra
Each of these ladies add something that creates a whole so much beyond their individual pieces. Linda has such a strong and powerful voice, that she so easily modulates down to support her sisters.
Emmylou, while probably the least powerful of the three, has the ability to find harmonies where there doesn’t seem to be space for one. And Dolly can sing with emotion and clarity that is hers alone. These three voices have blessed us with music that we will never see, nor hear again!
Lyrics:
I’ve been higher than the high sierra
Lower than Death Valley must be
I’ve been right, mostly wrong
Wrong about you, right about me
The way I feel, can’t explain
So much passion turned to pain
The sun still shines most of the time
Did you know the sun shines when it rains
I’ve been higher than the high sierra
Lower than Death Valley must be
I’ve been right, mostly wrong
Wrong about you, right about me
I’ve been cussed and I’ve been praised
And I’ve been nothing these days
But I’ll come back, time will see
If I’m wrong about you, right about me
I’ve been higher than the high sierra
Lower than Death Valley must be
I’ve been right, mostly wrong
Wrong about you, right about me
