Patty Loveless: Mountain Soul
As a youngster in Kentucky, Patty Loveless listened to the Grand Ole Opry, and she wrote songs and sang with various ones of her six siblings. After high school, she headed for Nashville and became a member of the Wilburn Brothers band. She released her first solo recording in 1987 and now has dozens of albums to her credit. These days, Patty and her husband, producer Emery Gordy Jr., make their home in Georgia — in a small town northwest of Atlanta. Her 2008 CD Sleepless Nights: The Traditional Country Soul of Patty Loveless received a Grammy nomination for Best Country Album. Her latest recording, Mountain Soul II, was released in late September on Saguaro Road Records. Patty was gracious enough to answer a few questions after her October 3rd performance.
How do you choose songs for each of your albums? What is your process and what are you looking for in a song?
We may receive as many as 200 to 400 songs, and my producer culls the obvious. At that point we’re probably down to 40 or 50 songs. We listen and grade on a scale of 1 to 10, and that might bring the number down to 20 or 30. At that point we add more songs. This process goes on and on, and after awhile we’re down to around 20. Then the fun begins.
I look for songs that touch me; songs that I can relate to. They might be fun or they might be dead serious, but either way they are songs that can/will evoke emotions.
On A Prairie Home Companion, you performed 'Busted,' 'Prisoner's Tears,' and 'A Handful of Dust.' How did you discover these songs and is there any story or special meaning to any of them?
On my latest album, Mountain Soul II, I performed the original lyrics of “Busted.” Harlan Howard had written the song in the early 60’s and it was about coal-miners. He changed the lyrics to cotton-farming to accommodate a request from an artist whose background didn’t involve coal-mining. Harlan gave a copy of the original lyrics (about a coal-miners family) to my husband/producer, Emory Gordy Jr many years ago, and when it came time to do this album, Emory pulled out these old lyrics.
“Prisoner’s Tears” was originally done by Jon Randall, but the record was shelved, and the song never saw light. At first I had trouble with the idea of a woman in prison, but the lyrics are even more potent from a female standpoint.
“A Handful of Dust” was on my second Epic album (When Fallen Angels Fly), and I felt that it hadn’t received the attention it deserved. It’s a wonderful lyric from the pen of the brilliant Tony Arata.
Patty shares more of the story behind 'Handful of Dust'
These 3 songs are from Mountain Soul II — Could you tell us a little about the CD?
Just like the first Mountain Soul, we recorded it “live” (except for 3 overdubs) in 4 days. All musicians and vocalists performed “real-time.” And some vocalists also played and sang at the same time. “Live.”…what a concept! Although the title of the album is Mountain Soul II, it’s really not a recreation of the original Mountain Soul. It’s a continuation, an extension, an update.

How is Saguaro Road Records? How is recording for Saguaro different than your previous label Epic/Sony? 'Sleepless Nights' is a Saguaro Road release.
The guys at Saguaro Road Records are great. They give me the freedom to do what I feel will connect with my fans. They are very patient, and very supportive. And it’s a real relief that I don’t have to worry about what commercial radio will think. I only have to worry about the minds, souls, and hearts of real people.
Garrison got the idea for A Prairie Home Companion by writing an article about the Grand Old Opry… since you are an opry member (the 65th artist to be inducted) and have appeared on both, how are the shows similar or different?
If Garrison was thinking in terms of pure pandemonium, then he got it right! None of the participants, including the audience, knows what the hell is going to happen next. That’s great! Garrison goes the Opry one better by inserting “old-time radio” drama with “old-time radio” commercials.
How can fans find out where you will be appearing along or keep up with your touring schedule?
You can get my tour info from www.PattyLoveless.com and keep up with the latest news including any new music. Patty has kept near home during the pandemic but has recorded a few guest spots on other peoples' albums including this guest shot on Trisha Yearwood's "Bible and a .44" and dueting with Terry McBride on "Rebels and Angels."

How Hackers Gained Access to My Crypto Wallet and Sensitive Data through a Keylogger sent to my device through a phishing email.
I’ll advise others to be wary of the kind of emails they open, as this happened a few weeks ago when a phishing email was sent to my email unknowingly to me that it was a keylogger with the intent of stealing my private information and if not for the intervention of Morphohack Cyber Services, I would have been cleaned out completely. I contacted Morphohack Cyber Services a week after that incident and they detected the keylogger in my computer which has been there for months stealing my private information. If my crypto wallet was not drained, I would not have been aware of the keylogger in my device. Morphohack was able to secure my devices and retrieve my crypto wallet including the crypto assets. Their sophisticated security features and malware can beat any hacking tools available and they are very professional and ethical. Morphohack is a lifesaver and I hugely recommend their services.
