I well remember as a little kid back around 1955, my family would gather around the radio and listen to Jolly Polly on WMSN in Raleigh play all of Patsy Cline's fantastic music. She's immortal, in my book.
I was always "in love" with Patsy even as a kid. She died when I was 11 years old. Oddly enough, I also really liked Jim Reeves at the same time. I knew they had completed a duet album together the same year he died, which was about a year after Patsy passed... also in a tragic plane crash. Thank God we have these wonderful recordings to remember them by.
We're the same (baby boomer) generation. I'm nearing 70 and cut teeth listening to Jim Reeves, Patsy Cline, Connie Francis and Dean Martin. I would add Faron Young and perhaps George Morgan to round out the BEST 6 singers ever to record. Best regards to you.

I could too. Sometimes my wife thinks I'm crazy for playing the same song over and over. Patsy was incomparable...and I don't believe there will ever be another female voice as good. She was gifted beyond measure.
I believe that the only woman singer that could have been as good had she chosen to switch genres would have been Whitney Houston her voice was as powerful and beautiful
Man, I gotta have my daily dose of Patsy and then some, I never get bored. I sang in choir for 8 years and just enjoy singing along. I'm addicted to Patsy ❤
This is a blues, country and pop performance all rolled into one if I ever heard one, ...that was the difference between Patsy Cline and other country singers singin' through their nose....she had great chops, and style and she appealed to everyone...there is this warm heart coming through that no one else today seems to be able to duplicate. She was about the song, the story, the lyrics, and not herself, when she sang. That's the ticket, that's what music is supposed to be about. and you can't get any better than the Jordanaires.
@@PatsyClinesDaughter Yeah, I'm just thinking about the good part of heroin, not the whole experience. Glad to hear that you have been off of it. Stay smart and best wishes to ya.
