Here's a clip of Kate and Anna along with Emmy Lou Harris, Mary Black and Kate's son Rufus Wainwright (amongst others) singing the Stephen Foster song "Hard Times Come Again No More."

Rufus is on Emmy Lou's left. Kate is on his left.

I actually like this. Just something about real singers that can just "stand there and sing" and sound so good.

Very sad day but also a very sad song. The Accordian works well.
