Wrote Wasteland of the Free one of the angriest songs I've ever heard. This version is her and piano. It is still a powerful song (btw it was written in 1996, so it is not a protest against Dubya).
On a much lighter note here's another outing for In Spite of Ourselves, a wonderful duet with John Prine
