If you've never heard the Car Wheels on a Gravel Road record, you really should. It's cliche to say 'every song is great', but it REALLY is true in this case.

In this particular set, songs 2-7 (Metal Firecracker through Lake Charles ... which is IMHO the best song of the collection, it's just a stunningly great song about the loss of an old friend) are all from Car Wheels, as are 4 or 5 others in the set like Still I Long for Your Kiss, Jackson, Joy, and Can't Let Go.

Car Wheels is truly a top 10 of all-time album for me, and I've heard 1000's of albums ... and this live performance of it, along with some of her older great tunes like Passionate Kisses, Changed the Locks, Something About What Happens When We Talk, Sweet Old World, and Pineola ... it's just brilliant.
