Diamond in the Rough--#27 finished
This is a memoir by Shawn Colvin a folk singer that started in 1980s and playing through today. I am not into folk singing--I like some Bob Dylan when it comes on but that is about it. I don't think I have heard any of Shawn Colvin's songs but she has won some Grammys so maybe I have and just don't know it. I ordered this book when on PBS someone offered me a book and I try to find a 2nd to help offset the mailing cost. Shawn grew up in South Dakota and I think that was the hook that got me to order the book. She also went to college at SIUC which is close to St Louis. It is a good read about her struggles at finding her music and earning a living in the business. Also that she was an alcoholic but has been in recovery for years now. Also struggles with relationships but does have a daughter. An interesting life and a good read.
