[edit] 1989 television appearance

If I am not mistaken, it was Tracy Nelson who appeared (along with John Hiatt and Robert Cray) in episode #121 in 1989 on the much acclaimed television series Sunday Night/Night Music (hosted by David Sanborn). She performed Slim Harpo's "I'm Gonna Miss You Like the Devil" and also CCR's "Proud Mary." Unfortunately (for reference purposes within the article), internet sources for her appearance on that episode seem to mistakenly list Tracy Nelson (a white woman, as is the singer on the show) as either Tracy Chapman, or Koko Taylor, both latter women being black singers. But the singer appears to be Tracy Nelson, not Lou Ann Barton nor Marcia Ball, whom my investigative trail also led to as possibles. Tracy Nelson went on to record "Like the Devil" several years later, so this 1980s televison appearance of hers may have been a significant comeback for her recording career. Worth a mention in the article, if we can find a proper accurate source.Steven Russell 07:21, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
