Synopsis

To some it was that voice.

To others it was the songs she chose.

And to others it was the fairy tale way a small-town West Virginia girl madeit big, and then tragically died so young in a plane crash.

Patsy Cline has been the subject of hit films (Sweet Dreams), Broadwayplays (Always, Patsy Cline), and numerous biographies (Honky TonkAngel). She still sells millions of records annually, even though she hasbeen dead for more than 40 years. She was a star who left well before her time,in the same vein as Jimmy Dean, Hank Williams, Marilyn Monroe, and Elvis.

This book is a companion to an MCA CD tribute to Patsy Cline featuringperformances of Cline's best-loved songs from current music superstars such asReba McIntyre, Natalie Cole, Lee Ann Womack, Dianna Krall, Trisha Yearwood andothers. In addition to quotes about Cline'sinfluence on their careers from the artists participating in the record, it willcontain reminiscenses from some of Cline's contemporaries such as Brenda Lee, LorettaLynn, and Harold Bradley.

Remembering Patsy is the first collection of photographs of PatsyCline ever released in a book.
