It has been barely a day since I heard the heartbreaking news that Nanci has died. I wrote a personal tribute to her which will be published in the Irish newspaper, the Sunday Independent, tomorrow. But this podcast, the master tape of an interview we did in 2000 for my radio show Under the Influence, is another kind of tribute in that it will remind us how deeply she loved music and what she tried to pass on to people when she was alive. No doubt she will continue to do so.
Nanci Griffith RIP
