“THOSE MEMORIES OF YOU” 1987

How did your group with Dolly Parton and Emmylou Harris, known as the Trio, come about? It was an accident. I went over to Emmylou’s house one day and Dolly was there, so we sat down and started singing a Carter Family song, and we found that the sound we had was different. So we said, “Let’s do an album together.” Emmylou came up with the material. I came in with the harmony arrangements. We’re all natural harmony singers. We didn’t have to fight over not getting to sing a lead. We just went with whoever sang the lead best on that song.
