“Hello Stranger” (1977)

from the heroes at Art Decade I learned of Emmylou Harris and Nicolette Larson covering The Carter Family:

What became of Nicolette Larson, I wonder, whose voice is certainly too pretty for this world?:

Larson died on December 16, 1997 in Los Angeles as a result of complications arising from cerebral edema triggered by liver failure. According to her friend Astrid Young, Larson had been showing symptoms of depression and her fatal seizure “was in no small way related to her chronic use of Valium and Tylenol PM”
