Live From Austin TX [DVD]
From the vaults of the award-winning PBS Austin City Limits TV show, Eliza Gilkyson is the latest release in the acclaimed Live From Austin TX series.
Although Eliza Gilkyson was born in Los Angeles, Texas likes to claim her as one of its own. Maybe it's because her songs have that deeply personal, plaintive, raw quality typical of so many of Texas best writers.
Music is certainly in her blood, being the daughter of folk singer Terry Gilkyson, who penned such classics as Greenfields, Marianne, and Memories are Made of This. She started writing and recording her own songs as a teenager, then moved to New Mexico and raised a family at the end of the sixties, developing a loyal fan base in the Southwest and Texas. She cut numerous records, and in 1984 made her first appearance on Austin City Limits.
This DVD, recorded live on August 13, 2001 in 5.1 surround sound, captures all the hits and more, and includes songs that were never aired on the original TV broadcast.
