"80s Ladies," "Do Ya," "Hold Me" -- all marvelous.

Seek: her nice supporting role in the dire The Thing Called Love as River Phoenix, Sandra Bullock, Samantha Mathis, and Dylan McDermott.

What do we think?

Had been hospitalized for some years for Parkinson's but was also diagnosed with COVID last week.

This thread needed at least 100 posts.

Maybe now it will.

RIP KT Oslin, icon of grown-ass, thoroughly modern, independent country womanhood. I’m so glad that I once had a chance to interview her & got to watch her enjoy a drag show. https://t.co/7G09TZTEJq

God, @KTOslinMusic means the world to me. As a gay boy growing up in the Alabama in the 80s, KT’s class and sophistication were like catnip for me. @TheBrandyClark and I bonded over her music and talked about it on @allourfaveppl earlier this year. https://t.co/M9OxNyqXP8

Also, @KTOslinMusic ‘s approach to the music business is one for the history books. I reference this 20/20 profile on her in almost all of my work in media training/artist development. More to come, but God, I can’t believe KT is gone. https://t.co/s7kK42IM66

I’ll never forget the night that I opened for Mike Reid at the Franklin Theater in 2013. My friend Robert Filhart asked if he could bring someone backstage. I didn’t know that that someone was KT Oslin until she blew through the door with him like something out of a movie. pic.twitter.com/JmPLJcR7bx

If you ever wondered why K.T. Oslin didn't record more, it wasn't that record labels lost interest. It's that she had high quality-control standards.
“When I think I come up with something interesting and good and different, that’s when I come forth,” she told me in 1996. (1/4)
