• Matrix Side A: PH-1109 RE-1 / 44825 / denny/Georgetown
• Mastered at Georgetown Masters, Nashville
• RE-1 pressing; noted by collectors as one of the better-sounding variants of this title

• Sleeve: VG+ — strong color, minimal wear
• [Include or remove: Original inner sleeve with printed lyrics included / not included]

About this record:
Recorded at Jack Clement’s Cowboy Arms Hotel & Recording Spa in 1985 and produced by Jim Rooney and Griffith herself. Includes “Love at the Five and Dime,” later a #1 country hit for Kathy Mattea, plus “Banks of the Pontchartrain” and “More Than a Whisper.” Bela Fleck on banjo, Lloyd Green on dobro and pedal steel. A core title in the Texas folk/Americana canon and one Griffith’s most devoted fanbase actively hunts down in original pressing form.
