Thank you for this great writing, and your video selections kickstarted me on a long adventure down the YouTube rabbit hole.
Tom Paxton is a superb songwriter, guitarist, singer, and performer in his own right but can you imagine just how damned excited he must have been the first time he heard Dolly and Porter singing “The Last Thing On My Mind” on the radio? If he was driving in his car it must have been hard to keep it on the road.
Great essay and tribute Zachariah
Ha! That “female Elton John” rant was gold.
Thanks for writing this piece - it’s quite timely. RIP Dolly.
Thank you.
