Next album = "Cimarron" (1981)"Evangeline" was a 1981 album by
Emmylou Harris that was comprised mostly of leftover material from past recording sessions and which did not fit into any of her other albums. Songs included a remake of "Mister Sandman" (from the ill-fated "Trio" sessions withDolly Parton andLinda Ronstadt ), "Evangeline", which she had previously performed withThe Band ,Rodney Crowell 's "Ashes By Now", and a cover ofJohn Fogerty 's "Bad Moon Rising". Though it received mixed reviews upon its release, the album sold well. A single release of "Mister Sandman" did well on the charts, though neither Ronstadt's nor Parton's record companies would allow their artists' vocals to be used on the single, so Harris rerecorded the song, singing all three parts for the single release.Track listing
