Their version of Bob Dylan's "I'll Keep It With Mine" might be my all time favorite song, it's just breathtaking to hear.<br /><br />The last year of Sandy's life was horrible. Her marriage fell apart, which lead to her drinking and drugging herself silly.This no doubt contributed to the fall down the steps at her parents house that would lead to her death a few weeks thereafter.JZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04830586696690222760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8921382.post-56057032813554087032012-02-04T18:47:14.232-05:002012-02-04T18:47:14.232-05:00Last of the week?

Or maybe it was Melody Maker.steve simelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13247393763004076992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8921382.post-71190620285057951362012-02-03T09:30:55.572-05:002012-02-03T09:30:55.572-05:00Thank god she never became a Linda Ronstadt.

She made every performance and every song, good or bad material, something to pay attention to.
