Emmylou Harris - Pieces of the Sky album cover
 Although she had released the obscure folk-styled Gliding Bird five years earlier, Pieces of the Sky was the album that really launched the career of Emmylou Harris, and is widely considered to be her début. In those intervening years she had forged a musical relationship with the late Gram Parsons that would forever alter the musical direction that her career would take. The album includes Harris' first high-charting Billboard country hit, the #4 "If I Could Only Win Your Love", and the relatively low-charting #73 "Too Far Gone" (originally a 1967 hit for Tammy Wynette). The overall song selection was varied and showed early on how eclectic Harris' musical tastes were. In addition to her own "Boulder to Birmingham" (written for former singing partner Gram Parsons who had died the previous year), she included the Merle Haggard classic "Bottle Let Me Down", the Beatles' "For No One", and Dolly Parton's "Coat of Many Colors". Parton, in turn, covered "Boulder to Birmingham" on her 1976 album All I Can Do. On Shel Silverstein's "Queen Of The Silver Dollar", her good friend Linda Ronstadt sings harmony.

The album rose as far as the #7 spot in the Billboard country albums chart.
