Carlene Carter Fan Club: Photos

The Bluebird Cafe, Nashville, TN - September 27, 2005.

Billed as "An Evening With Carlene Carter," the night became a party as she had just turned 50 the day before and many family members were there for the concert, and cake afterwards too! Carlene opened with her tongue-in-cheek "I'm So Cool" from 1980.

Other songs from 1980: "Cry" and "To Drunk (Too Remember)." Carlene also sang the song that launched her career when Emmylou Harris recorded it, "Easy From Now On"; and "It Takes One To Know Me," which she wrote for Johnny Cash when she was just 19.

Gina Stewart (on the left) and drummer Mark Horn of The Derailers (on the right) both appeared with Carlene in the stage show "Wildwood Flowers: The June Carter Story." Gina played Maybelle Carter, and Mark got laughs as an off-key singing preacher!

Carlene acknowledges the applause for hits like "I Fell In Love," "The Sweetest Thing," and "Every Little Thing." Other crowd-pleasers from the concert included "Hurricane" and her emotional tribute to her grandma and sister, "Me And The Wildwood Rose."

Gina points out the old photograph of Carlene on The Bluebird's wall of many of the artists who have performed there through the years. In December Carlene recorded "50 Miles Of Elbow Room" with Gina's group, Volatile Baby, for their CD "Traveling Light."
