True Grit - Iris Dement
Last night I was watching the movie - True Grit (with Jeff Bridges). Near the end of the movie I hear this sweet angel singing - I knew it was Iris Dement. She was singing a very old hymn, my Mom would have loved it. The song was Leaning On The Everlasting Arms. Words by Elisha A. Hoffman - Music by Anthony J. Showalter (1887). I have never seen Iris in person, but I do have her first cd - the postman brother bought that for me. It would be really something to hear her sing with John Prine in concert.
