Indeed! Check out this bit about Emmylou Harris:
D: Carl, since Flame have broken up, are there any other artists you plan to
sign with Brother Records?
Carl: No, we won’t be signing many other artists, you know, we didn’t intend
to have a Warner Brothers or something…
Bruce: I found a girl up…uh…
Carl: Oh yeah, she’s *really *good…
Bruce: …in Washington, DC, that I…*freaked* for…and dragged Carl and Al…and
Jack…down to see…and her name is Emmylou Harris. I don’t know if we have
time to cut other acts, but if we really don’t, I’ll probably try to field
her to someplace. She’s really good, man…and there’s…well, there was another
girl a few years ago, but she was a little too young…but this chick really
had it. We’re gonna see her in a few days, and I’m gonna talk to her and see
what she’s done. She’s a lot like…Melanie I guess, if I had to compare her
to anybody…
D: Does she play piano…
Bruce: No…
D: …or guitar?
Bruce: …plays guitar, and has a very laid back…*FIRE* in her voice…she has
real drive…
Also, Bruce dug the Byrds:
Bruce: The Byrds – well, he *is*, and it so happens that The Byrds have been
my favorite American group for the past seven years…they still are. They’re
just the *best* group.
