Mary Sarah and Friends "Bridges"




 (Cleopatra, 2014) I am so glad Mary Sarah is alive. Because when your debut album opens with Dolly dueting with you on "Jolene,' followed by Willie jining you for "Crazy," and then Merle, Tanya, the Oak Ridge Boys, Ray Price, Vince Gill, and even Neil Sedaka join you on song after songs I am fearfully thinking, "Uh oh...Make A Wish Foundation." Thankfully this was either just great fortune (or mob connections or blackmail or genie wishes) mixed with solid enough talent, resulting in a dream album that did not make this young singer a superstar (although it was a step towards getting on The Voice a little while later), but also did not end tragically. So that's a Country and Western win!
