Here’s the divine Emmylou Harris singing “Love and Happiness“*** from

All the Roadrunning, by Mark Knopfler and Emmylou Harris, an inspired—and inspiring—collaboration.

*** The You Tube clip is a bootleg—amateurish video layered over Emmylou singing this song live in November 2006. I think it’s the only live performance of this song available online. You Tube doesn’t permit embedding. View at your own risk. Yadda yadda yadda.

The clip sucks. Listen to the MP3 instead (click on the link above and scroll halfway down the page of the blog post that shows up, and thanks to the blog owner for the MP3).

Better yet: buy the disk. You will want to own it. I promise.
