I did a Dylan song and a Hank Williams song. And I think the song selection, for the most part, was pretty good. "Half the songs on there, they're not the greatest songs in the world, but I'm not embarrassed by them. "The good thing about that record is that it shows that I was very much into songwriting," Harris recalled. Track listing In Emmylou Harris own Words "Gliding Bird was made under very strained circumstances and her memories of the experience are not particularly fond. Though technically Harris' first album, she subsequently disowned the record and regards 1975's Pieces of the Sky as her first "official" album. The title song "Gliding Bird," was written by her then-husband Tom Slocum. Neither of the singles released from the album made any of the Billboard Music Charts. Jubilee Records folded shortly after the release of this album, thus ceasing any distribution or promotion its catalogue was purchased by Roulette Records.
Not until 1985's The Ballad of Sally Rose would another Harris album contain more than two of her own compositions. The album contains five folky Harris originals (with influences from Joan Baez and Joni Mitchell) plus the country-rock of Bob Dylan and Fred Neil, classic country of Hank Williams and a folk-pop rendition of a Dionne Warwick/Bacharach/David hit. Before she met mentor Gram Parsons and became a famous country singer, Harris began singing folk music yet Gliding Bird, her obscure début album, displays an eclecticism that is found in her later work.
