    • As someone pointed out in the Ken Burns series- it sounds like Tammy wrote Loretta Lynn’s songs- and Loretta wrote Tammy’s- Loretta married to the same man all her life- Tammy changed husbands on a moments notice.

    • I’ve watched it twice- will probably give it a rest until next spring! I hope you enjoy it- once the library gets on the ball!
