Such a wonderful singer, songwriter, and guitarist left us yesterday and much too early at age 68.
One of those performers who welcomed many to perform with her and was welcomed by many to perform with them.
A sweet voice of American folk and country music.

Rest well and may your spirit wander in the freedom from the trials and tribulations of this life.
Well done, miss. angel

Too Bad.  

Man we're losing some good ones.  I'm still upset over John Prine.

She did a wonderful duet with Townes Van Zandt's Tecumseh Valley.

Also sang it with Arlo.  Somewhat nicer harmonically. Both versions, beautiful.

RIP Nanci.  Sorry I never saw you at Red Rocks.

It seems there was no report of what she died from as per her request. Must be she knew it was coming. She had bouts with breast and thyroid cancer.
