You should listen to her do it with The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band at their 50th Reunion concert. Jerry Douglas guesting on dobro and Randy Scruggs on guitar. It's stellar . . .
Wow!! Alison is singing harmony with Vince here and what an Awesome Contribution.....with the The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band....she sings lead vocal and NGDB back HER with harmony and Jerry Douglas plays FANTASTIC dobro....adding to the band's own fine quality a LOT extra.....same as Alison with her Classy and Sweet Vocals! Alison makes ANYONE sound 100 times BETTER than their OWN fine qualities themselves!! She ADDS SO MUCH MORE!!
I love the version of Alison with Nitty Gritty Dirt Band singing this song. Look it up - you’ll love it. Of course she could sing Mary had a little lamb and I would buy the record.
Vince couldn't think of the third verse because he had already sung it after starting with the second verse. He was supposed to sing the verse he forgot first.
I'm confused. I thought he sang the correct 1st and 2nd set of verses but then blanked on the third group. Let me dream or another morning And a time so long ago When the sweet magnolias blossom And the cotton fields were white as snow
