Jimmie Rodgers, A Soldier’s Sweetheart, 1927

Not only a beautiful song, but largely considered to be the first recorded country and western song.

Linda Ronstandt, 1976 in Offenbach Germany.

Was a big fan of L.R. way back in 1966, and kept up with her all along her career and… Now arguably the best American female vocalist of the last 50 years, here doing justice to one of the best preceding her. A really beautiful piece of understated music video as well.
