Nanci Griffith - You Can't Go Home Again 

I just found her .... & I love her. Makes me sad to hear she's left us here. 💧❤🎶🎶🎶

Maybe there's an Austin heaven where she jams with Prine and Townes.

@@mortygoldmacher I can only imagine what the music must sound like in Heaven with them. What a show that would be.

Love her

So Jeffery Dahmer isnt gone because we have memories of him? No, she is gone. Like you and I and anyone reading this will be in time.

She is still with us !

I was coming to the comment section to post just this - truly is a great performance!!

I saw it before you . . . . . . . l o l

Standard, with a capo. She’s playing in G formation two frets up, so Across the Great Divide is in A.

⁠@@b1jThis song is You Can’t Go Home Again. She does not appear to be using G shapes, nor is she using a capo. Thus my question about tuning. She was fond of open G, so maybe that’s it. Thanks anyway!

She was amazing. I was instantly in love with her and her music.

Lovely Country Lady!

I'm shocked and 😢 sad.

Only the video owner gets the heart button. If you've ever had a comment 'hearted', it's always from them.

Sad that Texas music critics often didn't give her the appreciation she so clearly deserved, to her sorrow.

@@julianations6193 Wasn't aware of that. A critic's words are inconsequential; a musician's work is everlasting.

Nanci's voice has a charm and character all her own. It is evident that I am a big fan of Nanci...after all I posted these videos. However, when you consider the range and clarity of Linda Ronstadt's voice, I can only conclude that she was the greatest vocalist of the last half of the 20th century. From her first hit of "Different Drums" (one of my top 10 rock songs of all time) with the Stone Poneys in '67 to her final recording, "Adieu False Heart" with Ann Savoy in 2006, the breadth of her work spans big band, pop, folk, country, rock n roll, mariachi, and even a Gilbert and Sullivan operetta. If you want to enjoy her vocal range, check out "Adios" recorded on '89. It is unfortunate that Parkinson's took her beautiful voice from us.

Lutian Murphy some of the things you have to do and be to become a “super star” are extremely distasteful and many performers prefer not to be involved with all that kind of thing. Consciously or by instinct

She peaked in 1985-88. An is not a music biz type

@@alantracy6757 Those of lesser talent and subjective opinions have the right to be heard. Here’s my take. You presume too much. Your tone is dismissive and arrogant.

Linda, I would suggest "The Complete MCA Studio Recordings". I don't own it since this is a compilation and I have most of the songs on individual CDs. This is massive double CD containing 46 tracks. When I checked the playlist, it contains at least 2 dozen of my favorite Nanci songs, many written by her. You might want to add "Other Voices, Other Rooms" that includes songs not written by her. It includes Kate Wolf's "Across the Great Divide", probably one of their best songs (both Kate's writing and Nanci's performance). Both are available from Amazon at a very reasonable price and, if you don't want to wait on the mail, can be downloaded.I envy someone who will be hearing many of these songs for the first time.

@@gwflew thank you so much. I've liked her but haven't heard anything in years.🙂

'One Fair Summer Evening' it's a live album recorded 19-20 August 1988 in Austin TX. Before 'late Night, Grand Hotel' and she hit the big time. It is a beautiful woman singing beautiful songs she believes in with all her heart.

@@mn4082 it is also an awesome and incredible DVD, which you should check out, if you haven't... one of our alltime favorites from our dvd library of americana music! the only problem is that is too short with only about ten songs www.amazon.com/Fair-Summer-Evening-Nanci-Griffith/dp/B000002PID

Try late night grande hotel or flyer linda but really any of her albums will draw you in! Brilliant music! It makes me melt!

She would be Lee Satterfield.

@@gwflew Thanks for that, George.

Nanci and Lee Satterfield Wow!

I've been looking for signs of Nanci for years, but I've reluctantly accepted that she IS retired. I read somewhere that she attributed her retirement to arthritis and not being able to play guitar anymore ... just like Eddie in "Love at the Five and Dime." I hope Nanci is not selling insurance on the side. Spent some years away from Nanci after finding my favorite band (Dawes - two band members are former insurance company employees!), but I'm back to Nanci lately, and she sounds so good. We fans took her for granted, thinking we would always have her. I got so close to shaking her hand after a performance in San Francisco. I consoled myself thinking "next time!" but that never happened. Miss you, Nanci!

She was before me. Brilliant

I didn’t know
