I had never seen this clip before, a live TV performance by Patsy Cline the month before her death in a plane crash on March 5, 1963. She was only 29. This is not one of those cases when an early death made a legend; it just quickened appreciation of a remarkable talent. There is no reason to suppose that Cline wouldn't have gone on doing great work for decades: you look at her here and she seems so solid, so self-possessed.
