It’s amazing sometimes how so much love and friendship can be packed into such a short time period. For less than two years, Loretta and Patsy had an intense friendship; then Patsy was killed in a plane crash less than 21 months after they met. That fleeting wonder and joy in finding a soul sister is lovingly expressed here. Also I hope at some point before he died, Loretta kicked her husband Doo in the balls; I mean she’d never had an orgasm in the first fifteen years of her marriage (there’s a chapter on it in here)!?—seriously, JFC. A paean to lost beloved friend and a friendship between two remarkable women which lasted less than three years and was ended by a tragic accident when the author was still very much at the perfect friendship stage. Loretta and Patsy never had to compete because Patsy was at the top of her career and Loretta was well started but nowhere near Patsy's level of success. So, though their lives and marriages had problems the friendship was hardly troubled. The actual meat of the book is sparse though worthwhile, the padding isn't of the same level. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

"Me & Patsy Kickin' Up Dust shares the 'important and inspiring' (Miranda Lambert) never-before-told complete story of the remarkable relationship between country music icons Patsy Cline and Loretta Lynn. Loretta Lynn and the late Patsy Cline are legends--country icons and sisters of the heart. For the first time ever Loretta tells their story: a celebration of their music and their relationship up until Patsy's tragic and untimely death. Full of laughter and tears, this eye-opening, heartwarming memoir paints a picture of two stubborn, spirited country gals who'd be damned if they'd let men or convention tell them how to be. Set in the heady streets of the 1960s South, this nostalgia ride shows how Nashville blossomed into the city of music it is today. Tender and fierce, Me & Patsy Kickin' Up Dust is an up-close-and-personal portrait of a friendship that defined a generation and changed country music indelibly--and a meditation on love, loss and legacy"--Amazon.com.

Way back in the 1980s I read Ellis Nassour’s bio of Patsy and I’m pretty sure I also read A Coal Miner’s Daughter (I read everything my library has on country music back then) — I definitely saw the movie. Some of the material in Me & Patsy rang a bell but it was still enjoyable. ( )
