The Walker Brothers – Boulder to Birmingham
From the counter

Emmylou wrote this one with Bill Danoff, a name most people never think to check on the sleeve. Before long the song got around: The Walker Brothers released it the same year she did, and Dolly Parton and Joan Baez both put it out the year after.
