 | | And it is only right that Anthology, this welcome and long-overdue retrospective, should start off with three songs from that album, including "Boulder to Birmingham"--a testament to her mentor Gram Parsons--and, a quarter of a century on, still one of the best examples of Harris's haunting vocal style. |
 | | Were it not for Gram Parsons and Emmylou Harris, the universally acknowledged king and queen of progressive country, countless young alt-counry bands would have never donned theirfaded Levi's and battered Telecasters in the first place, and even if they did, they'd surely sound a lot different. |
