I don't think I really got all those bits and pieces. I went in and did a record in three days and didn't really have a direction, I didn't really have a style. I tended to be very passive, as I am still, maybe not so much as I was then, but I just signed the contract and found myself with a company that really wasn't able to do very much for me.
"I got a manager who got me this deal with Jubilee and I made the mistake of not getting a lawyer and not looking into what was going on.
"I was struggling and no one was interested in what I was doing," Harris said. So there were some seeds of what was to be." Her soon–to–be–former husband wrote the album's title song.In 2007 on the "Songbird" boxed set of rare material from Rhino Records, an alternate, slightly shorter take of the song "Clocks" from the Gliding Bird sessions finally saw the light of day.and was released on cd.Īlthough Gliding Bird is a gentle, unassuming little folk record (Harris's rather fruity arrangements owed more than a small debt to Clouds–era Joni Mitchell), her singing was not mature and passionate phrasing that would come to characterize her later work. I did a Dylan song and a Hank Williams song. And I think the song selection, for the most part, was pretty good. "Half the songs on there, they're not the greatest songs in the world, but I'm not embarrassed by them. "The good thing about that record is that it shows that I was very much into songwriting," Harris recalled. Track listing In Emmylou Harris own Words "Gliding Bird was made under very strained circumstances and her memories of the experience are not particularly fond. Though technically Harris' first album, she subsequently disowned the record and regards 1975's Pieces of the Sky as her first "official" album. The title song "Gliding Bird," was written by her then-husband Tom Slocum. Neither of the singles released from the album made any of the Billboard Music Charts. Jubilee Records folded shortly after the release of this album, thus ceasing any distribution or promotion its catalogue was purchased by Roulette Records. Not until 1985's The Ballad of Sally Rose would another Harris album contain more than two of her own compositions.
EMMYLOU HARRIS GLIDING BIRD RAR PLUS
The album contains five folky Harris originals (with influences from Joan Baez and Joni Mitchell) plus the country-rock of Bob Dylan and Fred Neil, classic country of Hank Williams and a folk-pop rendition of a Dionne Warwick/Bacharach/David hit. Before she met mentor Gram Parsons and became a famous country singer, Harris began singing folk music yet Gliding Bird, her obscure début album, displays an eclecticism that is found in her later work. GLIDING BIRD is an album by Emmylou Harris, released in 1969. I have put out on Gliding Bird album from my Emmylou Group.:
