Delightful in person! Many years ago, I had the pleasure of giving her and her tour manager a hot air balloon flight over Albuquerque, NM During the Balloon Fiesta. She sang to me. I sang to her and we had a blast together that morning. Fun day all around.
@@CarleneCater-cw2kn Hope is was a ride you'll always remember! After all these years, that's still one of my fondest memories. Never had a passenger sing to me since.
This very well may be the best Country song ever. Carlene knocks it out of the park, the video is great and includes Albert Lee, Howie, Benmont, and so many others.
@@michaelgray4964 Thanks for your comment about Levon! I started looking for him after I read your post. He’s playing mandolin and singing backup? I was expecting to see him playing drums and singing with his head turned to the side, looking like he does on The Band video, Up On Crippled Creek.❤
I love your work. Have many of your CDs. And I check out your RU-vid videos. You are still going strong! Your solo performance of "Wildwood Flower" blew me away.
I was about ten or eleven when this used to play on CMT. I feel in love myself with Carlene lol. And that ES-175!! I didn't know at the time that was none other than ol Albert Lee wielding that beast, or probably who Albert Lee even was then! I still love that guitar ! Although when I listen back now I Kno a Tele when I here one and that's gotta be what that solo was wrenched out of so I hope no kids went out and spent five grand on an old Gibson jazzbox lookin for that sound😏🎸. I don't think 🤔 we have to worry. The ol lady's mad I'm using her RU-vid account to talk about my childhood crushes! Gotta go!
@@CarleneCater-cw2kn Thank YOU, Carlene, for ALL your MUSIC! I really love listening, such a spectrum, fun rockabilly to gorgeous heart wrenching ballads... And I was mainly a hard rocker 70's 80's kid...
Whoa, this one brings me back good memories, good times for me! I always dug this one, and another song, Every Little Thing (I believe)... I always wanted to see her do something with Tom Petty, since half of the Heartbreakers are already there, LOL!
Un cordial saludo desde Cuba 🇨🇺.. me encanta la música country, es un género muy hermoso y agradable al oído.. no hablo inglés, pero solo de escucharla se que es lo mejor...
And to think I had a chance to go on a double-date with her right about when this came out... A guy I'd worked with at a radio station here in California had moved to Nashville to work as a session drummer. He and his wife got to be friends with her and his wife told her that she knew a guy who would be a good match for her, and if they could ever get me out to Tennessee, Carlene and I should go out with her and her husband. Working in radio meant there was no way I could get the funds together. This still makes me sad.
