If New Zealand had an equivalent of Dolly Parton, Tammy Wynette and Loretta Lynn, it would have to be singer, songwriter and survivor Jodi Vaughan. Jodi's back with a new album For the love of country - her 10th - just about entirely self-penned. Jodi was country when it was hardly cool, but regularly sold truck-loads and topped the TV ratings in shows like That's Country back in the Eighties. And her life continued to echo the best country songs - ups, downs, triumphs, disasters, and at one memorable moment a punchup with the Ku Klux Klan in a gay bar in Texas! But above all, she had that heart-breaking voice, that perky personality and later the songs she wrote. Simon Morris invites Jodi Vaughan to look back on her legacy, and forward to two new albums. The album For the Love of Country can be purchased as a CD signed by Jodi from www.key2store.com and shipped to your door!
