covered. Jena Douglas
put together some local
musicians; Pat Hackney as the mandolin, violin and
back vocalist, Jackie Boucher is a back vocalist and
percussionist, Mory Alverez as bass guitar and back
vocals and Keith Christian as Slide Guitar player.
Together they have been putting Linda Ronstadt’s well
produced songs into an acoustic format. Not always
easy, but certainly fun!
