A hybrid of tough and tender with an unearthly voice that seemed to embody a time long past. As is often the case with such fragile beings, she instinctively understood that the only way to survive the harshness of the world around her was to keep herself hidden. So it comes as no great surprise that she rarely sang in public or ventured into the unnatural setting of a recording studio. Only twice, for 1969’s \u003cem\u003eIt’s So Hard To Tell Who’s Going To Love You The Best\u003c\/em\u003e and then again for 1971’s \u003cem\u003eIn My Own Time\u003c\/em\u003e, was she coaxed from her natural habitat into the studio. Other times, she made music in casual settings, sitting around a kitchen table or a wood burning stove with her friends, singing and playing until daybreak.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1966, Carl Baron brought his reel-to-reel over to her remote cabin in Summerville, Colorado and recorded one of those exquisite musical evenings. Karen and Richard Tucker were rehearsing for a gig when Carl hit the “record” button. The result is a 45-year-old tape, carefully exhumed, documenting Karen at her most raw and unfiltered. On it are Fred Neil and Tim Hardin songs we’ve never heard Karen give voice to before as well as traditional songs she uncannily makes her own, including a devastating version of \"Katie Cruel\" that is so powerful, it is as if the ghost of Katie Cruel possessed her. This recording is a window into her Summerville cabin, opened and allowing us to eavesdrop on Karen Dalton at her most pure and unaffected.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNewly unearthed rehearsal tape from 1966\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFeatures Karen solo on banjo and guitar, plus 4 duets with Richard Tucker.
