"Telling Me Lies" is a song written by Linda Thompson and Betsy Cook, which was included on Thompson's 1985 One Clear Moment album (her first solo album, after divorcing husband and former collaborator Richard Thompson). A more famous recording of the song, however, was Linda Ronstadt, Dolly Parton and Emmylou Harris's version, which they included on their 1987 collaboration Trio. The song was also released as the album's second single, and it reached the top ten on the U.S. country singles charts in the fall of 1987. Parton, Ronstadt and Harris' recording of the song was nominated for a Grammy award in 1988 for Country Song of the Year.

I adore emmylou
They did a great version of After the Gold Rush.
Trio is good stuff for testing out your sound system. Unbelievable harmonies.
Linda Ronstadt looks kinda old in that picture. And it was from 1987? Wow.
Anyway, here’s Linda Ronstadt on the Johnny Cash show (1969). What a beauty! Linda that is. Not Johnny.
What harmonies! Imagine if Alison Kraus had been with those three too
Those that don’t love EmmyLou Harris haven’t met her yet- Willie Nelson
I loved everything Richard and Linda Thompson ever did.
And Richard is a marvelous guitarist, with such wonderful musicality. A good example is his guitar work on “Walking on a Wire”
Sublime.
amen
