Description:
Rhino pays tribute to Harris` great musical adventure and extraordinary output with the first-ever boxed set to spotlight her artistry, the 5-disc Songbird: Rare Tracks & Forgotten Gems, featuring 78 songs - from 1970-2006 - on 4 CDs plus a DVD featuring 9 videos. Every selection was hand-picked by Harris, who co-produced the box with James Austin. Like the artist herself, SONGBIRD is unpredictable, sonically elegant, stylistically diverse and eloquent in every aspect. Its wealth of career-spanning treasures - including groundbreaking work with Gram Parsons, tracks with her Hot Band and stellar duets with a who`s who of musical greats - encompasses many that will ring with familiarity, as well as lesser known wonders from this world renowned icon of American music.
